About Solstice Dark Bronze Ed 1/12
At once both elegant and classic, this superb sculpture is the work of Jeremy Guy. The graceful form of a female figure emerges from the black granite. Guy has long been influenced by the renowned British sculptors Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. The velvety smooth finish of this piece reveals a black/brown patina with flecks of bronze on the edges.This is one of a series, engraved with the artist's signature, date, edition and foundry. The word solstice comes from the latin ‘sol’--sun and ‘sistere’ which means to stand still—a reference perhaps to the seasonal movement of the sun’s daily path.
“My work conveys a sense of balance and peace as I strive to seek a seemingly impossible equilibrium between the simple elegance and dynamic complexity of the world in which we live." Jeremy Guy
He was born and raised in England where he completed a BA in Product Design from Leeds Metropolitan University. Since graduation in 2001 he has been a full-time sculptor. Guy emigrated to Canada in 2007. His stone sculptures can be found in public spaces and private collections around the world including Queen Ethelburga's College Sculpture Park, North Yorkshire, UK, Orchard Residences in Singapore, the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Baltimore and more.
