Ceirios a dur gwrthstaen / Cherry and stainless steel
28 x 64 x 20cm
Mae’r cerflun hwn yn rhan o gyfres barhaus o weithiau pâr mewn pren a deunyddiau uno amrywiol, gan gynnwys dur gwrthstaen, dur, efydd, pren a thecstilau. Dechreuwyd y thema fel ymateb deunyddiol haniaethol i ‘The Kiss’ gan Brancusi—gwaith y des i ar ei draws ac a syrthiais mewn cariad ag ef pan ddechreuais edrych ar gerflunwaith gyntaf, flynyddoedd maith yn ôl. I mi, mae’n ymwneud â’r cyflwr cyffredinol o fod gyda’n gilydd—am gariad, rhannu a chydraddoldeb. Mae fy ngherflun hefyd yn mynegi’r angen am gydbwysedd rhwng natur a magwraeth, pren a dur, sy’n gyflwr dynol dirfodol.

This sculpture is part of an ongoing series of paired works in wood and various joining materials, stainless steel, steel, bronze, wood and textiles. The theme was initiated as an abstract material response to Brancusi’s ‘Kiss’ a work that I met and fell for when I first started looking at sculpture, many moons ago. For me, it’s about the universal state of togetherness, about love, sharing and equality. My sculpture also comments on the need for a balance between nature and nurture, wood and steel, which is an existential human condition.
