Chris Plaisted: Sculptor
Chris Plaisted was born in a tiny NH town surrounded by artists, including his family, many painters, and a neighbor who was a welder and woodcarver, and he seized the opportunity to learn from him. He is an emerging artist drawn to travel, architecture, cities, and water. He works primarily as a sculptor with a studio and workshop near the lake in New Milford, CT, with trains, planes, boats, and NYC close at hand.
His sculptures evoke emotions drawn from his experiences traveling and observing the world. They are mainly welded steel constructions, but he also uses copper, wood, concrete, and other metals. The work is primarily abstract but often includes figurative elements. His work has appeared in dozens of large-scale outdoor shows nationwide and in galleries.
Christopher resides in New Milford, CT, with his wife, two children, and Leonidas, the dragon.
As a sculptor, I explore the interplay between form, texture, and space. I am particularly interested in the relationship between positive and negative space and how it can be manipulated to create a sense of movement and dynamism within the work.
In terms of form, I am drawn to organic shapes and structures found in nature, which I seek to emulate and abstract in my work. Using materials such as wood, stone, and metal, I aim to create tactile and sensory experiences for viewers, encouraging them to engage with the work visually and physically.
Furthermore, creating a sculpture is just as important as the finished product. As such, I approach each piece with a sense of experimentation and spontaneity, allowing the materials and the act of creation to guide the work.
Ultimately, my goal with this sculpture project is to create works that challenge the viewer's perception of space and form while inviting them to engage with the work on a visceral and emotional level.
