Colin Kwok Sculptor

"Artists help us to understand what is around us."
Andree Putman

This a view of the master bedroom and ensuite bathroom in a home I recently designed. It was featured in Architectural Digest magazine December 2006. You can read the article here. I used a wonderful bronze sculpture on the bedside table which was sculpted by a dear friend and very talented Architect Colin Kwok. The title of the piece is Jeanne d'Arc and it is breathtakingly beautiful.
Trained as an architect but passionate as a bronze sculptor, Colin Kwok was trained at the Rhode Island School of Design. Read more about Colin at Intelligence Online

  2. Wow, his work is stunning. I also love the idea of career shifts...to follow one's heart and one's ability, clearly.
    Thanks also for the Diana Vreeland quote below re: taste. She was so witty and original.
