This suspended, dancing ballerina is created by antique restorer/painter/sculptor, Roger Hose.
"Diolas" is made from a wire aperture, then sympathetically applied cedar saw and natural pigments and French polish to bring out her organic human form. You can see "Diosias" in motion below.
Roger finds his own unmistakable style, giving his figures a maximum in expression by reducing and densifying them. The relation between figure and space becomes the central issue of his artistic work.
"So it is important to fashion one's work carefully in its smallest recess and charge every particle of matter with life."
- Alberto Giacometti
