Lee responding to Tonda’s colour, texture, feel and shape? Excerpts from the <a href="http://www.thefriendsofhollandpark.org/index.php?page=projects" rel="nofollow">News by Friends of Holland Park in August 2014</a>. "Holland Park’s Sun Trap garden has been nurtured to create an exotic display of colourful plants and ferns. At the centre sat an empty brick plinth just crying out for a sculpture that fitted the richness and warm colours of the planting." [The Friends Group] decided that Jonathan Loxley was the artist we wanted. ... We liked his work because it is mystical, and understanding it is left to one’s own imagination. After meeting him and agreeing a form, stone and size, Jonathan set off to Italy to buy a large chunk of honey-coloured onyx.... Why ‘Tonda’? We wanted a suitably mystical name with links to her Italian origin. Tondo is an Italian word which is used for rounded pieces of art and, since the piece is female, ‘Tonda’ is appropriate. Jonathan told us: ‘In my work, I try to strip away the superficial so that it can be experienced at an elemental level. People respond to Tonda’s colour, texture, feel and shape in a way that is hard to describe to someone who hasn’t seen her’." |
