Ed Smith, Selection from transcription of the ILIAD, Book X
Statement
I am a sculptor and a great deal of my work involves drawing. I have been immersed in yet a third transcription of the ILIAD of Homer for the past years. The drawings are in excess of 3,000. They relate to the arc of growth that occurs with Achilles in the ILIAD. Text is incorporated with images and everything is formed by hand, preserving the notable repetition and internalizing of the poet bards or Homerids.
