Isaac Witkin’s energetic, complex works demand to be experienced from every angle, so as to grasp in full the relationship between their seemingly disparate components. As the artist once commented, “I am basically a Baroque sculptor, in the sense that I avoid any strict adherence to the plane and to symmetrical layout. I aim to establish a freedom to move in multiaxial space, in a way that will draw the spectator in and around the sculpture, to experience different aspects of an evolving dynamic.” 

The open, linear design of Kumo, a word that translates to “cloud” in Japanese, exemplifies this sense of freedom in its graceful and floating curved forms.
