Jeremy Guy
Murmuration - Large scale, smooth and polished, black granite outdoor sculpture

2020

About the Item

Engineered black granite is sculpted by Jeremy Guy into an elegant swirling abstraction inspired by the flocking behaviour of starlings. Called a murmuration, this phenomenal aerial ballet appears as if the birds are a single swirling dark mass in the dusk sky. "In my own abstract work I am acutely aware that nature champions great design. From the shaping of a beach pebble through years of tidal and elemental erosion to the myriad forms found in biology, I am often awestruck. My work conveys a sense of balance and peace as I strive to seek a seemingly impossible equilibrium between the simple elegance and dynamic complexity of the world in which we live." Jeremy Guy Guy was born in a small town in West Yorkshire, England. Natural inspiration has come from the work of British modern sculptors Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. He has lived in Canada since 2007. Educated in Fine Art and holding an honours degree in Product Design, Jeremy has been a full-time sculptor for approximately 20 years. His works can be found in public spaces and private collections in many countries across three continents. The natural environment and especially time spent on, or near, water have had a significant influence on Guy's work. This work is available by commission in an edition of 50. Please ask us about delivery time. The sculpture weighs approximately 1050 pounds. This piece is also available in stainless steel as a commission.
