‘I made a series of masks which are concerned with surface as a skin; the division of inside and outside space in volume sculpture. My linear sculpture had been concerned with motion, and later, I realized that a mask is an arrest of movement’.
(William Turnbull, ‘Statement’, Das Kunstwerk, ‘Neue Abstraktion/New Abstraction’, 10-12, April - June 1965, p.126.)
