Description:
An original hand-carved marble relief sculpture exploring the tension between permanence and fragility. Emerging from the stone is a fluid, reclining form intertwined with botanical motifs, suspended between figuration and abstraction. The surface is carefully refined to capture shifts of light across the marble, while the raw edges preserve a sense of the material’s geological origin.
Medium & Materials:
Marble, hand-carved and polished.
Dimensions:
Approx. 35 × 22 × 3 cm
About the Work:
This relief sculpture forms part of an ongoing exploration of transformation, memory, and the relationship between the human body and the natural world. Carved directly into marble, the work allows forms to emerge gradually from the stone, creating a dialogue between presence and absence. Delicate botanical elements weave through the composition, suggesting growth, vulnerability, and resilience.
The sculptural surface shifts between smooth, polished passages and traces of the carving process, emphasizing both the material weight of marble and its unexpected softness. Light becomes an active component of the work, revealing subtle contours and changing the piece throughout the day.
Why This Piece Matters:
The sculpture reflects an interest in the poetic possibilities of stone—how a material associated with permanence can convey movement, tenderness, and impermanence. By balancing abstraction and representation, the work invites personal interpretation while remaining rooted in the physical act of carving.
Collector’s Note:
This is a one-of-a-kind original marble sculpture, hand-carved by the artist, signed and dated. No reproductions exist.
Presentation / Shipping:
