CATALOG EXCERPT

“…Toni Ross’s sculpture is both figurative and abstract, both heavy and light, both rough and smooth, both delicate and strong. It projects a great sense of serenity, and yet it seems full of energy. Her forms feel fresh and new, yet they are primal and basic, too, and resonate with a sense of time.”

Paul Goldberger, 2016
