In the early 1990s, Royden Mills and his wife moved to Japan for two years, a move that afforded him new experiences yet continued his earlier interests in Buddhism, Taoism, and Eastern philosophy. When he returned to Canada, he began to assimilate these varied influences into his work, which culminate in pieces such as 'Inside Elevation': large architectonic elements combine with organic shapes to create forms and surfaces that reflect sensitivity to harmony, order, and aesthetics.
