September 1988. Granite, painted steel. Dimensions: 103 × 24 × 15 in (262 × 61 × 38 cm).
Private collection - Washington, DC
Over the years, I have created many sculptures featuring openings or portals, suggesting entrances, thresholds, and passages into spaces and places, both real and figurative. Often, a vessel form—a metaphor for the individual and a carrier of our experiences, memories, and aspirations—moves toward or through a portal or gateway.
This passage suggests a moment of personal transition or breakthrough: moving beyond obstacles and from the known toward the unknown. The portal becomes both a barrier and an opening, while the vessel embodies the energy and determination required to pass through it toward discovery, transformation, and new possibilities.
