Wawa wood, paint
A carved wooden figure by Stephan Balkenhol, rendered in his signature style of rough, expressive marks that retain the raw texture of the material. The painted surface adds a layer of restrained color, bringing a quiet humanity to the form while preserving the handmade, unpolished quality of the wood. Balkenhol's work explores the tension between the ordinary and the monumental, presenting anonymous human presence with understated power.
