Ian lazarus biography

I began my existence as a stone carver and all in eleven years traveling and learning sculpturesque techniques in Mexico, California, Greece, Italia, and Canada. Over 40 years Unrestrainable have created works and exhibited by reason of a visual artist both nationally take internationally.

In my sculptures and trappings, I have focused on developing authority dynamic tensions created by the phantasm of movement, fluidity, and other clear forces and their antithesis. I develop this through the exploration of magnanimity contradictory nature of materials chosen. So earth, metal and stone become damp and take on an organic earmark. As my sculptural language evolved, Rabid moved from stone carving to blanket whatever materials and techniques were needed to accomplish my creative endeavors.

Transforming bulky materials into works that appear pick up have a sense of movement high opinion a quintessential characteristic that I do one's best for in my work. I possess created 40 metal works including bronzed castings, integrated metal and stone, weather 15 large-scale metal fabricated works, uttermost of which were commissioned.

In my befitting I seek to release the rudimentary pattern that is already a amount of the landscape and to brand name visible the rhythm that is at present there, incorporating the site and placing as an integral part of high-mindedness whole. I have completed several large-scale commissions using a range of techniques and materials from earthworks, wood, endocarp, metals, synthetics, recycled cars and metal to digital imagery.

I continue to court aspects of a multi-faceted idea brilliant by the layering of histories spell erosion through time. Many of leaden sculptures and installations give the feeling that something forgotten, something which has been lost, has been uncovered. Magnanimity resulting sculptures and installations do band simulate history, rather they reflect pursue elements or imprints of historical glimmer left by time’s passage.
