Back of Martha
"Back of Martha" by Evan Penny is a hauntingly lifelike sculpture crafted from silicone, pigment, hair, and aluminum, presenting the viewer with an intimate and unflinching study of the human form from behind. Penny's meticulous use of materials renders every subtle detail of skin texture, tone, and hair with uncanny precision, blurring the boundary between art object and living presence. The work invites quiet contemplation of vulnerability and identity, as the subject's face remains hidden, leaving the viewer to engage solely with the raw physicality of the human back.
