Assertion...

Many public sculptures seem to place the male figure in poses that imply stoic strength and certainty, backed up by physical might. In contrast, the female figure has often been portrayed in stances of submission with poses that convey a fuller range of emotions, from trust through to vulnerability. This series explores mixing strength with softness. However, as a male sculptor, I wonder whether this subject is ‘meant’ to be left to female sculptors?
