Originals in this selection, Expressive and gestural, Granite.
Movement in the hardest material
When granite turns gestural, it looks as if a piece of mountain had frozen mid-fall. Expressive granite sculptures for sale will appeal to anyone who wants force and movement in a material that usually stands for calm.
Gestural granite works leave blow marks, notches and broken edges standing. Instead of smoothness they look for power, and the stone answers with rough surfaces in which crystals flash. Even a large mass can feel as light as a sentence in mid-leap. The hardness of the material makes every gesture final and gives it weight.

Room for strong forms
Sculptures like these need air, ideally space on all sides. Outdoors they work against sky, meadow or wall; indoors in tall rooms with clear light. Statues can serve as a narrowing filter when choosing. Ask about weight, type and foundation, because with so much mass there is no room for accidents. A photo in backlight shows how the crystals of the surface respond to light.
