"Until the interest of an artist shifts from the personal sensation to a sense of communal service his work cannot grow. As pure artist his work may be technically more perfect in the exploitation of the ego - but it cannot take on real greatness until it bears the burden of a people."

Wm. Soutar, poet, 9th August 1932

“Looking back at my sculpture you’d think I was obsessed with giving gravity a hard time and taking my materials to the limit. It’s easy enough to make life-like sculptures but by nudging them off balance in an awkward place – it makes them vulnerable, precarious; they get an urgency to be alive.”
