ABOUT THE ARTIST

As a person I’m an explorer, constantly seeking to find something new and stimulating in either a physical or cerebral sense. Sculptures I create circulate in aesthetics in contemporary forms with influences from, science and architecture. These inspirations inform me in creating series’ with specific dialogue due to process‘, dimensions and material usage Depending on the sculptural forms and concepts, a few primary materials employed are; copper, glass, and steel. Stephen Shachtman is constantly seeking to find something new and stimulating in either a physical or cerebral sense. The sculptures he creates circulate with aesthetics in contemporary forms with influences and inspiration from, science, architecture, and techniques. These inspirations inform him to create series’ with specific dialogue due to process‘s, dimensions, material usage, and overall presence. Depending on the sculptural forms and concepts, a few primary materials employed are; copper, glass, and steel. Some of the elements in Stephen’s work range from; hammered surfaces which have an organic aesthetic while overall forms tend to have clean lines with a minimalistic approach yet are monolithic in presence. Some aesthetics are large-scale filigree in the metal that allows a viewer to see through the organic forms, while similar manipulation of glass elements are stacked to create positive and negative spaces. All pieces are affected by the orientation of light to unveil the personality of the sculptures, which create a 4th dimension of shadows and reflection as they emerge to produce an element of surprise.
