Artist Replete presents Sonus Harmonia by artist Chris Hynes. This sculpture began at a local thrift shop where the artist discovered a sterling silver clarinet.
" My first thought was that it was a flute, but I was informed that the silver instrument was in fact a clarinet. As it turns out, the traditional wood clarinets were more expensive in the past as they required an advanced level of craftsmanship to fashion them out of wood.
As this technology predates the invention of plastics, sterling silver was the preferred method for crafting clarinets as a cheaper alternative. The concept of music predominated the creative aspects and drew me towards sculpting a humpback whale as they are known for their expertise in song.”
Over the past 12 years the work of artist Chris Hynes has been internationally exhibited and collected. Each piece the artists creates combines the brutality of manmade metal and the perfection of nature. Using metal from scrap yards and molding it with clay, the artist is able to breathe life into his creations. Often times the found parts will spark an idea and guide the interpretation.
