Cedar, stain, graphite, in 2 parts
The title of this work by Ursula von Rydingsvard serves as its own spare, material poem, listing cedar, stain, and graphite as both components and subjects. Her practice is rooted in the physical labor of cutting, stacking, and manipulating raw cedar beams, coaxing monumental organic forms from industrial lumber. The addition of graphite and stain deepens the surfaces with a dark, almost geological richness, blurring the boundary between sculpture and the natural world.
