Born in Illinois, sculptor Luc-Alain Fiedler now lives and produces work in Maryland. Fiedler has exhibited all over the United States, particularly in Washington and California. His sculptures often combine a variety of media, chiefly stone and metals, and they are inspired by science and nature. 'In my own way I use Einstein’s theory of relativity to show the interrelationship of all things—where science and inner and outer space meet, and coexist in a frozen moment of sculpture. Therefore, many of the forms within the compositions are either found in nature, or are elements associated to man and industry. The sculptures are created such that proportion and association of forms simultaneously focuses as well as confuses our perception of a given reality.'
