Sentinel Series, comprising two chunky interlocking forms in carved granite, was among the few truly stand-out works, beautifully executed and open to multiple readings. It seemed perfectly at home overlooking the ocean. Brancusi would have liked it." The sculpture was represented by the Hotham Street Contemporary Gallery in Melbourne, Australia and now resides in a private collection in Aspen, Colorado. As an artist, Rhodes combines the aesthetics of traditional stone construction with contemporary building techniques. Rhodes' current projects include a series of hand carved stone tables meant as monumental outdoor gathering places. The tables have architectural qualities, featuring dovetail joints, butterfly joints and other construction techniques unusual for stone. His most recent sculpture, Resolute Arch, features a 20' high stone arch with a piece broken from the apex. The piece incorporates hand cut stone pieces with an internal tension system for structural support. Expanding on his figurative and gestural work, he has also produced a series of cast bronze sculptures, Sentinels I & II Bronze shown in private galleries in Aspen and in the Dutko Gallery in London. Rhodes produces his bronze works at the Fonderia artistica Battaglia in Milan, Italy. Educator and lecturer Rhodes developed several lectures accredited by the American Institute of Architects (AIA).
