CURVES AND CONTOURS
When artist Malcolm Liepke first received the
unadorned sculpture, he spent a lot of time studying
the piece, trying to unearth an inspiration. After
looking at it for a while, he began to notice all of the
curves and indentations, both concave and convex.
They seemed to be compressed – and he thought of
people squished and condensed into a small space.
As a figurative painter, he began to wonder: what
Sponsored by: if these were all women – mimicking the curves –
squeezed and contorted onto the surface?
Curves and Contours is this inspiration realized.
