Baby Snowman (white)
Gary Hume's *Baby Snowman (white)* presents a strikingly simple yet evocative figure rendered in the artist's signature gloss enamel, its highly reflective surface lending the work an almost unsettling industrial sheen. The cast resin form distills the familiar childhood symbol of a snowman into its most elemental shapes, stripping away sentimentality while amplifying its graphic presence. Hume's restrained use of white transforms the piece into a meditation on purity, absence, and the uncanny tension between innocence and artificiality.
