The detailed narratives of Robert Carlson’s sculptures and chalices, as he calls his large figural goblets, are symbolic, reflecting themes that are archetypal and personal. Inspired by the religious art of many cultures, Carlson says that he investigates “the numinous, that which cannot be defined or understood by the rational mind.”
