Carving with torches
Hi Norman,
My favorite inverse sculptures are by Kazutaka Uchida.
Here is one

Another way common, but uncommonly executed by Uchida is the simple
penetrating hole:

There is another spit method grotto of Uchida's on the web but I can't find
it presently. Globules and nodes on the interior though a slit in a squared
up block.
Anish Kapoor has a perverse preoccupation with tunneling. The huge work at
the Tate modern. And once again the frisson of penetrating the squared mass
of a block with a stretched fabric tunnel. The excitement of emptyness.
Energies of negation. The quality of material existentence finally
revealed! Peek-a-boo!
Regards to you!
Woeful Willy
