Nick Van Woert — Black Eclipse
Nick Van Woert

Black Eclipse

"Black Eclipse" by Nick Van Woert features a classical plaster bust partially consumed by a dark, glossy resin that engulfs its surface like a slow, creeping void. The contrast between the traditional sculptural form and the industrial material creates a tension between history and decay, preservation and erasure. The work challenges notions of cultural legacy and the inevitable entropy that reclaims even the most revered symbols of civilization.
