SARET, Alan
Matter into Aether

“Like fossils, Saret’s sculpture exists somewhere between memory and non-existence. The wire’s tensile strength and resilience holds the memory of the move- ments of the body — movements motivated by an urge to form – but a form in flux, no sooner composed than decomposed in its embrace of space. Seldom has sculpture achieved such an active exchange between space, form, and volume.”
—Klaus Kertess
