Bryan Hiveley- "The natural world has always been the driving force in my creation of art. Nature is an endless source of inspiration and fascination. Its beauty and intelligence are reflected in the simplicity of a seedpod or the complexity of an entire ecosystem. In my sculptures, stacked forms act as metaphors for the delicate balances in nature and the interdependency of living things."
