HOW TO PLACE SCULPTURE IN YOUR HOME, OFFICE OR PUBLIC AREA

Some people are intimidated by sculpture. Most of us are comfortable enough with pictures to hang on the wall, but what to do with a piece of sculpture? "Where am I going to put it?"

The answer is, you've got to make room for it. Sculpture is three-dimensional, as opposed to a two-dimensional picture that conveniently hugs the wall. Because sculpture is three-dimensional, it wants to live in the same space you occupy. It should ideally be placed where you can see all sides of it, unless of course, it is designed to hang on a wall, such as a bass-relief, or the "Holy Spirit" sculpture here in my gallery. It is not so hard to find a place in most homes. Most people place a flower arrangement on a special stand. Do the same with sculpture. Put it on an end table, or a coffee table, as shown here. Be creative! Sculpture is three-dimensional, just like you are, share your living space with it. Most sculpture looks good with a plant next to it. Make it look like a natural part of the space it occupies.
