The Gallery's Perspective
A sudden sweep of wings seems frozen mid-flight beneath a sheet of glass, and that arresting moment is what gives this piece its pulse. The translucent lucite base reads like carved ice or cloud, its textured interior catching and refracting light so the bronze-toned eagle appears suspended between solid ground and open air. The bird’s outstretched wings and open beak introduce a thrilling sense of movement and presence against the calm, luminous support—there’s energy tempered by restraint. Because the base is substantial and tactile while the round glass top is clear and refined, the composition balances weight and airiness in a way that feels both sculptural and practical. It’s a design-minded object that still carries a quietly dramatic, almost cinematic gesture: a noble creature poised between earth and sky, ready to lift off.

Christopher Pardell began sculpting at the tender age of four, and by his teenage years, Pardell had come to the realization that sculpting was to become his life's work. Influenced by the work of renowned sculptors Russell, Remington and Rodin, Pardell wanted to pursue his passion for realism. His formal education was laid aside in favor of an apprentice moldmaker position with a commercial statuary company, and it was there that he received what he considers to be his "real education in art."
As an apprentice to the Italian master artisans who ran the statuary, Christopher rapidly learned the skills that would enable him to excel as an artist and earn the stature that has come with his success. Never sketching his designs on paper, Christopher composes all of his work in three dimensions, in a maquette. This unique approach explains the unparalleled beauty and detail that are the trademarks of his work. Christophers exceptional style and special talent have served to impress even the most discriminating collector.
Currently, his artwork can be found in public and private collections throughout the world
