My Love is a Flower

Hans de Goede

Hans works in various types of stone such as marble, alabaster, serpentine and Belgian bluestone, but he is no stranger to wander into selenite and soapstone. When it comes to a rough stone, Hans is usually guided by the stone. It then becomes an exploration in which a shape or figure is created during the process. A sketch or clay figure serves as a model if it is a sawn piece of stone. Ideas can sometimes appear as a pop-up in the head.
