Michael Dweck

The Duke’s Mermaid (Sapphire) from Sculptural Form - Surfboard

A luminous female figure emerges from the depths of Michael Dweck's archival pigment print on silk, encased within the sleek, sculptural form of a surfboard constructed from polyurethane, resin, and fibreglass. The work blurs the boundaries between photography, painting, and object, transforming the surfboard into a vessel of mythological femininity and oceanic allure. Mounted via the artist's custom aluminium bracket, the piece hovers between functional artifact and fine art, embodying Dweck's signature exploration of beauty, desire, and the seductive pull of coastal subcultures.

Medium
Archival pigment print on silk, polyurethane, resin, fibreglass. Accompanied by the artist's aluminium wall-mounting bracket.
