A realistic sculpture of a man dressed casually, in a state somewhere between serene concentration and anticipation.
Henry’s sculptures are contemporary figures in casual clothing, frozen mid-motion or lost in quiet reflection. He first models the forms in clay, then casts them in bronze or finishes them in ceramic, and finally paints them with oil. Much of his work is displayed in public spaces, where the figures seem to blend into everyday life.
