Couple Emerging From the Block

Dimensions: 35 cm x 28 cm 60 cm high
Materials: Mapa burl, mahogany

Having read descriptions of Michelangelo’s creative genious, Kimchi sculpted this couple in hommage to the Rennaisssance master’s “Atlas Slave”. In a similar fashion to his predecessor, Kimchi began working the block and “allowed” the human forms to metamorphose as if on their own.
