Elizabeth Miller McCue

I believe I chose sculpture as a medium of expression because I grew up learning about the world by picking up objects, holding them, breaking them, seeing what they were like on the inside and outside.  In its isolation, independence and completeness sculpture, too, is a tactile object that offers us an image rich with information about ourselves, about the world.

            Broadly speaking, I would describe my work as a synthesis of abstraction and realism, organic and nature-based.  For me the starting point is always content.  Content determines the form.  Content is meaning and meaning is multi-leveled.  The image is itself, and something other than itself.  It is experience and perception transformed, reverberating with many meanings, larger than itself.
