 | | Fand has chosen erotic themes for his sculpture because he believes that sex and love are topics that deserve artistic commentary. |
 | | Fand has been asked, "Why do you depict sexual organs and activity explicitly?" lt has been suggested that if the sexuality of his sculpture were "veiled," it would excite and interest viewers more by giving freer reign to their imagination. |
 | | To which Fand answers: The purpose of the sculpture is not to excite viewers sexually, but rather to focus the viewer's mind on the power, beauty, and mystery of the process of procreation. |
