Ouro Bouros - Fine Art Sculptures

Added: June 13, 2008 @ 11:24 am

Ed Davenport is a stone sculptor and musician whose career in sculpting began over 25 years ago. Living on the coast of Mexico at that time, he was inspired by the graceful shapes of the driftwood that had been weathered, cured and formed by the elements. Through further carving and polishing, he transformed these shapes into collaborations of mind and nature. Long since a resident of Tucson, Davenport now works out of Splinter Group Studios and sculpts primarily in marble, some of which he finds locally in the canyons and abandoned quarries of central and southern Arizona. Whether representational or abstract, Davenport's art manifests in stone the sensuality and intrinsic beauty of organic forms. In the artist's word's: "I am fascinated by the contrast between the organic nature of life and the hardness of stone--between the fluid and the solid. Blending these elements in a work of art is an expression of hands and mind that is deeply fulfilling to me. What began as a diversion has become a life work and a passion."
