Derriere, Bronze, 45cm high by 24cm wide by 30cm deep, Abstract sculpture

This piece is an abstract bronze sculpture, the form sweeps and curves in a way that loosely resembles a human body. At the base, the shape rounds outward, suggesting the lower half of a torso. From this grounded curve, the form rises upward into a series of ridges that fan out and extend behind it.

The bronze surface carries depth and richness, with subtle highlights catching on the ridges and softer shadows settling into the curves. Light shifts across the sculpture, emphasizing both fluid movement and solid structure. The contrast between smooth rounded areas and sharp ridged sections adds rhythm and energy.

The composition flows naturally. The lower curve anchors the work, while the ridges create upward motion, drawing the eye around and behind the form. This dynamic interplay gives the piece balance, combining grounded stability with a sense of lift and expansion.

Though abstract, the sculpture hints at the human body without becoming literal. Its simplified form captures essence rather than detail, leaving space for interpretation. The name Derriere adds a playful reference, guiding the viewer’s reading while allowing the work to remain open and expressive.

Derriere blends elegance, movement, and suggestion. Its polished bronze surface, sweeping lines, and striking ridged finish create a refined yet bold piece, well suited for both contemplation and display.
