Cinderella moments...After basic blocking, the basic proportions and a roughed out figure has emerged from the block. Now it's time to double check measurements and start to refine the figure. After what feels like miles of stone removal, but actually only inches, refining the figure leads to the left foot and leg.
I am in the beginning stages of carving a female figure, a Modern Athena, out of a single block marble at the same scale of Michelangelo’s David (approx 17 feet tall). This is the 4 foot version in italian statuario marble. In the age of the MeToo movement, female identity and power have emerged as fronts for social change. The impact of a woman carving such a large sculpture of a female warrior is meant to be inspirational. The Modern Athena sculpture is about not accepting prior limitations, not just for myself, but for everyone.
