Over his career, Harvey’s work has evolved from landscapes to
figurative to the abstract work that you see with Signature Piece.
Each step in the creative process dictates the next move. The
sculpture is akin to improvisational jazz, in that it is created
not by set plan or ritual, but by allowing the work to flow from
itself. There is spontaneity in the form, allowing the viewer’s
own life experience to influence their interpretation of the art.
