The Gallery's Perspective
At first glance the piece feels quietly luminous — a small, jewel-like tableau that holds a larger story. Set within a clear, faceted block, a finely modeled figure rises with arms open and head tilted upward; the pose reads as both surrender and triumph. The figure’s silver robes and warm bronze skin tones are struck by a rich red drapery that immediately becomes the emotional heart of the work, a vivid accent that suggests passion, sacrifice, and renewal against the crystalline clarity that surrounds it. Because the figure occupies real space inside the Lucite, there’s a gentle interplay of weight and light: the polished planes of the block throw soft reflections and subtle shadows that make the central image feel present from every angle. The halo above the head and the uplifted hands give the sculpture a meditative, hopeful quality — a moment of emergence captured with restrained dignity. As an object, it blends intimate scale with a quietly monumental feeling, the kind of piece that invites a few calm, focused moments of reflection whenever you pass it.

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
