Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary art piece features a curved, weathered metal structure with a distressed, mottled surface in shades of orange and black. The asymmetrical composition and industrial materials create a sense of raw, rugged textures and forms. The artwork appears to be mounted on a white column, highlighting the contrast between the rough, aged sculpture and the clean, minimalist display. The artist's use of found materials and the piece's abstract, sculptural nature suggest a focus on exploring themes of decay, impermanence, and the intersection of nature and industry. This work likely aims to provoke contemplation on the passage of time and the transformative effects of environmental forces on manmade objects. ...

B.1976, Danish

When choosing a material with which to sculpt, Marie Lund carefully considers its reaction under pressure, heat and light, whether it is heavy or seemingly weightless. Often working in copper, the artist twists, reshapes and contorts the metal with the help of a metalwork tool called an English Wheel, commonly used for making curved panels for car parts. She is intrigued by creating forms detached from their original function, the purpose of their conception. Lund’s arrangement of the sculptures within her installations is distinctly curatorial. In The Apartment (2020), canoe-like structures made from aluminium and nylon straps clung to the walls high above the visitor or were suspended just above the ground, their polished surfaces reflecting the ornate parquet flooring and activating the space, or visa versa. ...
