Artwork Description

about this bronze sculpture

Hossein Azadi's "Crumpledness Series" features bronze sculptures that explore themes of constraint, struggle, and transformation. The primary medium is bronze, chosen for its durability and ability to capture intricate details.

Azadi employs traditional bronze casting techniques, starting with detailed wax models that are later cast in bronze. This meticulous process allows for precise rendering of complex forms, resulting in unique and expressive sculptures.

The sculptures in this series are characterized by their textured surfaces, with rough and smooth areas creating depth and complexity. This contrast evokes a sense of internal conflict and existential tension, reflecting the emotional and psychological struggles of human beings in relation to the external world.

The use of bronze enhances the tactile quality of the sculptures, allowing light and shadow to interact dynamically across the surfaces. Azadi's attention to detail and powerful expression blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary conceptual art, making his work resonate profoundly with viewers.

The "Crumpledness Series" includes various pieces, each with unique dimensions and editions. For instance, one of the sculptures measures 22 cm in width, 15 cm in depth, and 38 cm in height, and is part of a limited edition of three.
