About the Item
Junction I is a sculpture in lacquered poplar by the Dutch artist Wouter van der Vlugt.
This sculpture is made from wood, a material the artist favours for its naturalness, texture, smell and the way it feels to the touch. The sculptor uses only local woods and chooses them on the basis of their size, which is where the sculptural potential lies. The artist approaches this living material with great respect. He imposes his will on the material to sculpt it, but at the same time, the wood itself directs his work with its imperfections, shapes, knots, and blackened elements.
Although he often finishes his sculptures naturally with beeswax or oil, the artist sometimes applies lacquer to part of his creations, as is the case here. He removes the texture of the wood to explore the light and reflections on a ‘neutral’ form.

Wouter van der Vlugt’s sculptures explore the relationship between form, light and material through an interplay of solids and voids that give them a sense of movement. In his work, the elegant, organic forms of nature coexist with more geometric, almost architectural structures. The sculptor’s work has been selected by leading events dedicated to excellence in craft and artistic creation: in 2017 and 2019 by Révélations, the international biennial of crafts and creation at the Grand Palais (Paris, France) and in 2022 for the Homo Faber exhibition at the Giorgio Cini Foundation (Venice, Italy). “I work a lot with emptiness, with the transparency of the pieces. I want to transform a solid block into something light, where light and shade can play, and where wood becomes movement.”
