Statement

Tearing granite, pulling apart rock that has not been exposed to the light of day, much less the touch of a chisel or pneumatic drill; carving into stone that resists even a diamond enhanced saw blade, dulling an edge encrusted with a material harder than any other on earth; forming shapes that twist, entwine and even float in air, or coalesce through water that glistens softly over its surface, misting the spaces between vertical edifices rising majestically out of the ground. Such is the nature of the work of Texas born granite sculptor, Jesús Bautista Moroles.
