‘I am a sculptor and an historian. I put together objects, words and thoughts, they make me speak. In this speaking I start from the sensibility of things and the sensibility that I am. I tailor this sensory perception to the qualities of a space. Both define each other and form my artistic practice together with my apprenticeship of everything and everyone that I recognize as a teacher. I write about them and about what I think is typical of sculpture in my book De Onversnedenheid. Over Sculptuur als Belichaamde Denking.’ (Laurence Petrone)
... now drain at the source the minerals of the night / eat sweet cabbage and bitter humiliations swallow this poison / slide down along the winding of time
descend the mountain with the stone tablets / in your pockets the bottom is your friend / close your eyes to the hatred because your hands / know the corn and the stones the lead in which you / took your first letters and your first steps... (Vincent Van Meenen on Laurence Petrone in Hart)
‘In all of Laurence Petrone's works we encounter an attention to colour, material, proportions, the surrounding space and the viewer. The techniques used are functional. The interventions are minimal. Often it seems as if the materials have met in a miraculous way. And they always bring the surrounding space to life, creating breathing space. Or thinking space. Beautiful.’ (Hans Theys on the works of Laurence Petrone)
