“Art, for me, is the vehicle that synthesizes order into the awe of existence. It is the vehicle for dance, music, poetry, literature and the visual arts. It represents the soul of human consciousness. Our challenge is that intelligence is the wild card. We do not follow the formula that nature ordained. The dance between ourselves and nature has reached critical proportions and we should learn swiftly to return to the path before affairs become irreversible.”

Eric Hilton’s magic is in his synthesis of the dramatic light of his native landscape, the Highlands of Scotland, with the highly compressed simulacrum of purest crystal. His sculptures revel in essences and light, while seeking to emphasize the fragile chain of interdependent relationships which give diversity and abundance to our Earth.
