Interpretive NotesIn Circular Object One, what is most important to Clayman is the sculpture’s economy of line, its absence of color, and the behavior of the light around it. He says: “By paring away almost everything, I am left with objects that exist in space in the simplest manner. While the forms themselves are of primary interest, the space surrounding the pieces and the space that the pieces surround carry equal weight.”
