Marke Meyer has always had a special interest in figurative work. He uses
both sculpture and photography as tools to explore the human figure. Meyer's
style is loosely associated with contemporary realism, although he most
often likes to infuse his work with a quirky, conceptual edge.
To quote Meyer: "Figures fascinate me...especially the female figure. The
energy present between me and the model becomes the breath of life in my
work. I am inspired by the infinite possibilities of form achieved by using
a variety of figures in a multiplicity of poses. I am mesmerized by the
warmth, plasticity and texture of real flesh - 'the fleshiness of flesh'.
The human body, either in frenetic movement or caught at rest, remains my
only playground."
