Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This abstract sculpture features a towering, angular form composed of white, geometric shapes. The overall composition has a dynamic, fragmented quality, with the various cuboid elements seemingly stacked and balanced in an asymmetrical arrangement. The predominant use of neutral white tones creates a sense of ethereal weightlessness, emphasizing the sculptural interplay of solid and void. The artist's technique showcases a modernist approach, combining clean lines, sharp edges, and a minimalist aesthetic to evoke a sense of tension and balance. This piece likely reflects the sculptor's interest in exploring the relationship between form, space, and the viewer's perception. ...

B.1986, South African

Kyle Morland is an interdisciplinary artist who primarily works with sculpture, photography, and video. His artistic practice revolves around the manipulation of materials and experimentation with form and spatial relationships. Morland creates his artwork while adhering to self-imposed formal constraints, such challenges he gives himself. His sculptures demonstrate a playful engagement with proportion, balance, and dimensionality. His continuously growing archive of photographs resonates within his sculptures as he borrows and stretches industrial materials, reimagining functional forms and structures. To produce his sculptures, Morland often creates functionless forms or "tools" in his studio, which often resembles an industrial workshop. Concealing the making of his large sculptures, Morland erases visible seams that once identified the parts as separate. This produces a gestalt sensation, that is juxtaposed by the laying bare of certain aspects of his systematic process, such as the installation of single units. Morland's work focus' on transitions, while referencing industry and the body, fragments and unity, process and play. ...

Cape Town

Based in a 360 sqm gallery in Woodstock, Cape Town, blank was founded by Jonathan Garnham as a project space in 2005 and transitioned into a commercial gallery during 2012. The gallery represents emerging and increasingly established artists from the region in a critically engaged programme that emphasises contemporaneity, with a focus on concept and abstraction in the African context. With an exhibition programme that has a reputation for shaping the discourse around contemporary art in South(ern) Africa, and participation in prominent local and international art fairs, we seek to place our artists' work in a wide range of private and institutional collections. In addition, blank continues to promote the visual arts in our community through ongoing projects that support the sector. ...
