Form and Formless No.1 is the first in a series of 3 western red cedar sculptures exploring a flowing balance between "absence" and material. The concavities are given an almost equal importance to the solid portions of the design. The material and the voids exist together in confluence. There is no movement separate from the environment in which it moves. I contemplate motion in stillness when designing these forms. The stillness of the freestanding tree material interacts with the dynamic shape. I think this structural framework within which the form curves and turns gives the piece a restfull sense of groundedness.

Mike Sasaki was born in Toronto, Canada. He graduated from the Bachelor of Design Honours program at York University / Sheridan College in 2005. He lived in Tokyo, Japan for 5 years where he was immersed in traditional and modern Japanese culture. The martial arts philosophies have played an important role in his artistic development. In his search for a hands on approach he has found sculpting in wood a wonderful solution. He is currently living in Metro Vancouver and focusing on the metamorphic line of abstract wood forms.
