Stanway John

2008

Stanway John presents two discrete forms cast in polished bronze and set against raw concrete, merging the refined with the industrial in a tension characteristic of Lucas's practice. The work carries the artist's signature irreverence, using material contrast to probe themes of the body, identity, and everyday existence. Its dual composition invites the viewer to consider the relationship between the two parts, both physically and conceptually.

Medium
polished bronze and concrete, in 2 parts
