SEAN HENRY
SEAN HENRY, A PAINTED PLASTER VERSION OF 2018 'HEDDA' SCULPTURE
Jesmonite, oil paint, editon AP (artist's proof), 38 x 23 x 24 cm
Donated by the artist
British sculptor Sean Henry depicts anonymous figures in drawings, painted clay and bronze, often portrayed in thoughtful and contemplative poses. Changes of scale disrupt our comprehension of the figures - proportions are never quite life like, rather enlarged or reduced, creating a physical and psychological contrast in relation to the viewer.
Collection of the artist
The sculpture is an extra to the edition of 9 painted bronzes, 8 of which have already been sold.
