Spiritual Expression through Sculpture
Opening Reception August 29, 2008 - 5:30 – 7:30 pm
Carpe Diem! Seize the Day! Live for the Now! Embrace life! Dwight Hume is the exemplary reflection of “Being It and Living It” and he shares his inner-most experiences with his latest sculpture exhibition.
Dwight’s latest show, Transformation - Spiritual Expression through Sculpture, reflects his epic journey this past year with the passion to create uplifting and spiritually-inspired sculpture. Moved by his favorite poet, the Sufi mystic Rumi, Dwight’s piece entitled Tears of Separation gracefully expresses the ache and longing for the sacred within us. As Dwight explains, “We feel so separated from our Divine that even rocks cry.” The sculpture of blown glass tears flowing from a dramatic base of moss rocks touches one’s soul. Gazing at the sculpture brings the viewer into a deep contemplation about the nature of one’s true self.
The exhibition also features eighteen pieces spanning the artist’s career, ranging from abstract to realism, with sculpture cast in bronze and carved from stone—including marble, basalt, and alabaster.
Dwight’s signature piece Bhajan—named after the Hindu word for devotional songs which express love for the Divine—resembles an ethereal musical instrument fashioned by unworldly hands. Fifteen limited-edition bronzes, of the original carved from soapstone, will be available for sale.
Dwight will be on hand to share his transforming experiences of the last year, and the inspiration for his work, at the opening reception at SantaFe.com, (216 Washington Avenue, August 29, 2008 from 5:30 – 7:30 pm.). Sculpture exhibition and sale: August 30th – September 30, 2008, by appointment only.
Please join us August 29th for an uplifting and memorable evening.
