Drawn Apart
2000
"Drawn Apart" is a cast iron sculpture by Antony Gormley created in 2000, featuring the artist's signature use of the human body as a primary subject. The work employs the weight and solidity of cast iron to explore themes of fragmentation, separation, and the tension between presence and absence. Gormley's industrial material choice reinforces a sense of gravity and earthly constraint, inviting viewers to contemplate the physical and psychological forces that both connect and divide the human form.
