XXI century woman, 2019, bronze
The XXI Century Woman is a contemporary representation of the female form, independent, defiant; she is not the reclining Venus of the past. She is confident, powerful, elegant and inexhaustible; an undaunting female who transcends time but is seldom represented. She stands upright, moves forward, with determination. She is made of many pieces/facets, she is both clothed and naked
She is inspired by strong women of the XXI century like Serena Williams tennis player, who usher us into a new century. She is both modern and timeless.
The sculpture utilized both volumes and planes or facets to describe a figure who occupies space and cuts an elegant intelligent profile. The sculpture was made from paper and cast in bronze in 2019.
Sculpture is an inherently public form of visual art and a sculptor’s job is to catch and hold the attention of the public. Engaging and inspiring the public in this ancient discourse with dynamic and dramatic works which reveal more to the viewer with each new visit; exploring historical context and blending of old ideas with new.
