Scott’s Piece Description
I often share with folks….. ”artists’ can’t help but create self-portraits with their work.” This sculpture offers an insight into my life. I’d be willing to bet, like me, you’ve seen animals enjoying the same pleasures in life that you and I do (a good stretch, awesome food, playing with friends or getting a peaceful nights rest). I’d like to add to that list….enjoying nature…..in ’being caressed by the wind’. Be it on a rock ledge, out in a meadow or at the edge of a canyon….how many of us have enjoyed nature that same way?
The difference between animals and most humans….is their sensitivity to the messages and information offered up in nature. How is it animals vanish before a tsunami, know when to hibernate, swim back to their place of birth after swimming thousands of miles in the ocean, etc?
I’m blessed to have a studio, at an elevation of 4900 feet, up on a hill, which is often blessed
with “Canyon Winds”.
Curator Review
Scott Rogers invites us to see ourselves in the quiet grace of this windswept horse. Canyon Winds captures a moment of stillness amid motion—ears back, mane tousled, nostrils flared—not in distress, but in heightened awareness. The horse stands alone yet fully alive to its surroundings, savoring the same sensation that Rogers, and many of us, cherish: the wind moving through an open canyon.
This piece is not only an equine portrait but a sculptural meditation on sensitivity to nature. Rogers’ patina choices reflect a lived-in, earthy richness, and his surface textures add to the raw, organic presence of the form. The subtle twist of the torso, the raised hoof, the alert gaze—they each reveal a connection between inner stillness and external energy.
This is not just a horse enjoying the wind. This is an artist standing on his hillside studio, sculpting a moment he knows by heart.
