Curved and spiral forms are de Beer's dominant
choice in the construction of his sculptures. This tendency is sometimes called
in art "biomorphic abstractionalism" as the curves, blobs and bulges
in the paintings of Hans Arp or the sculptures of Henry Moore. De Beer's
sculptures project his thinking in terms of organic growth and natural forms
rather than in terms of what is artificial and mechanical construction. Color
and material also play a significant role in de Beer's sculptures, in conveying
the messages he is interested to represent.
