DAVID HARRISON:

Born in Lismore, New South Wales in 1941, David Harrison is a formidable sculptor of the human body. His languid nudes possess a freedom of form that contributes to their appeal. Within the solidness of the bronze medium, David has created a unique sense of movement. The pointed finger of a ballet dancer, the lazy stretch of the young girl awakening or the posing preminando poised on a plinth appear not only life-like, but alive. It is in the subtleties of movement that David displays his brilliance as a sculptor.

Using life models he moulds initially in clay, working and reworking to achieve the desired effect. His aim is to capture the femininity of his subjects. The female body is recognised as one of the most beautiful forms to sculpt and yet it is one of the most difficult. David's observation and attention to every detail make him a master of his medium.
