"Before you start sculpting, the idea has to be almost comple-
te. I say 'almost' because the really important thing seems to be
the sculptor's ability to let his intuition guide him across the gap
between conception and realisation without compromising the
integrity of the original idea; the point is that the material has
vitality - it resists and makes demands."
Barbara Hepworth was an English artist famous for her
sculptures, considered to be among the first abstract works
in the history of English art.
