Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This sculptural artwork features a smooth, organic form in a muted, earthy tone. The overall composition is minimalist and asymmetrical, with a distinctive curved shape balanced on slender, angled supports. The choice of materials, likely wood or a wood-like composite, highlights the artist's attention to texture and materiality. The subtle coloration and simple, abstract design suggest a focus on exploring the interplay of form, space, and natural elements, inviting the viewer to consider the sculptural presence within the broader context. This minimalist work reflects the artist's intention to create a thought-provoking, contemplative piece that challenges traditional notions of sculpture and its relationship to the environment. ...

Artist
Marie Lund
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. ...
