This human study was among the most difficult I’ve undertaken. The body carries within it an infinity of subtleties—curves that shift with breath, transitions of light across skin, the softness that resists being contained. To approach it through a cubist lens meant confronting the challenge of translating something so fluid into the sharpness of planes, triangles, and fractured geometries.
In breaking the body into these angular forms, I was not trying to diminish its humanity but to reveal another layer of it. The triangles and intersecting shards connect to something more profound than anatomy—they speak to the universal language of proportion and harmony that Pythagoras saw in mathematics, and that Plato described as the realm of ideal forms. For me, this study becomes more than a figure: it is a meditation on how our human spirit is structured by both the visible and the invisible.
What emerges is a tension between the physical and the metaphysical—the flesh rendered as facets of light and shadow, the earthly body pointing toward something timeless. In that sense, this piece does not just capture a figure; it seeks to honor the wisdom of form itself, the geometry that underlies our being, and the way abstraction can point us back to the essence of what it means to be human.
While the original has a home, the Limited Editions are a scarce asset, and I personally create these pieces by hand. Each numbered and signed.
