Seismic ray sculpture by ML Snowden

Seismic Ray shoots upwards in clean lines away from the terrestrial impactions that coruscate other works of the Geological Coreium. Seismic Ray’s bronze is a jet of pure unbridled seismic energy that strikes upwards through earth. Indeed, the vertical two-tiered composition draws its line from a pair of figures placed end to end that intuit the path of naturally occurring seismic wave patterns that rise in supported undulations traveling though earth’s mantle. All the force of the upward climb of arcing energy is made possible through the firm support of the lower figural icon. Larger cognates of support, aid and mentorship circle the humanitarian relationship of the work. A specialized mathematical calculation carries the entire weight of the upper icon in a small weld point just over the heart of the lower figure, marking a structural advancement for the art of bronze.
