Louise Nevelson

Six Pointed Star

Louise Nevelson's *Six Pointed Star* is a handmade cast paper relief that showcases the artist's signature exploration of form, texture, and geometric abstraction. The work transforms humble paper into a sculptural composition, with the relief process creating depth and shadow that echo Nevelson's celebrated wooden assemblages. The six-pointed star motif serves as a bold, symbolic focal point, reflecting her enduring interest in archetypal shapes and spiritual resonance.
