18/20 About two years ago James made a piece titled "conversation" which sold out the edition very quickly. This piece was made in part as a result of many requests from collectors for a new version of conversation. While he tries not to do too much anthropomorphizing in his work he did want to convey the idea and mood of contentedness with this piece. The bell has wild sunflowers on it which are the main food source of the mourning dove in the fall. He also hoped to convey the idea that abundance is more about relationships than it is about having lots of stuff. In the last two years he has greatly reduced the amount of stuff he has and consumes and he has become intensely aware of how important his family and friends are to him. He hopes this piece speaks to people to have gratitude and to be content with what and who they have.
