Dr. Mark Prysi: The Human Form
During his time at Washington and Lee University, Dr. Mark Prysi pursued his interest in art, particularly of the Italian Renaissance, of which he took many classes. Intrigued at how art, ideas, and writings at the time had gone through such an empowering “rebirth”, Dr. Mark Prysi liked to imagine the same type of rebirth of face and body. Based on the interests he explored in his classes, Dr. Mark Prysi began to take on sculpture as an art.
Dr. Mark Prysi found that being able to shape and construct the human face and body was a liberating and educating experience. While he would review visions latent in his mind, how the ideal face might look, variations based on different proportions and backgrounds, Dr. Prysi found that in being able to put enact these ideals in a physical form, he was able to develop his idea of what that ideal aesthetic was, and to challenge himself to create a wide range of beauty.

The passion to strive to achieve a similar feat, to actualize the ideal forms and aesthetic he could see in his mind, became a great motivating force in Dr. Mark Prysi’s life and professional career.
