Rockville artist Lee Aks works in a cubist mode, creating small, elegant bronze sculptures. He sees his work as a blend of organic forms found in nature and the shapes of machines.
Aks, a sculpture conservator at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, began working in bronze after a back injury forced him to give up stone carving. He turned to carving plastic foam and soon was having his new work cast in bronze.
