Angel in front of our church |
Dish of Wisdom
Conception resulting in new life in the shape of a crystal sphere, inspiration, breath of the spirit. |
Leo Jongenotter
Born in 1965, Barendrecht.
Sinds 1995 working as a sculptor at the Zaag in Krimpen aan de Lek.He works with statues, and young people
He works with steel.The statues might be big or small, indoors or outdoors abstract or figurative,but always with an element of life, that is to say an expression of emotion, movement or passion.The story is told by the image and discovered by the spectator who listens with his own ego.

Soul-dial of steel in the light of the moon.
We all know the sun-dials. Well this is different. Here the three circles are not closed. They hardly touch each other. We may think of Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Sculpture for Leo's father, who was very ill but never complained and his memory is kept alive in his family.The stones were found on the beach of Normandy. |
