Wayne Wittig: Sculpture

Published: May 16, 2019

On exhibit at the Connection: Crystal City Pop-up Library from May 1 - 31, 2019.

sculptures made out of wood

Artist statement:

Our mind has the ability to differentiate human and animal shapes from inanimate objects around them. This ability may have  developed as a self-defense mechanism to ward off potential threats. However it arose, it permits us to see or create human form in abstraction. My sculptures attempt to stimulate insights into how we see human and animal forms in the abstract. I want to have fun with this attribute to see representations and movements through dynamic positioning.

Wayne A. Wittig retired some time ago after an international career that allowed him the time to add his own creations to an eclectic art collection.

Want to buy something you see on our walls?
Artists contribute 20% of sales made during their exhibit to the Friends of the Arlington County Public Library, to help support Library programming.
