About the Item
This stunning Brutalist sculpture of a sunflower is crafted from copper, brass, and burl wood, displaying a dynamic interplay of textures and materials. The copper and brass petals radiate outward in a bold, abstract form, showcasing the raw and organic beauty of Brutalist design. The sunflower’s center is finely detailed, capturing the essence of the flower, while the sturdy burl-wood base provides a natural, earthy foundation. This unique sculpture is an eye-catching piece that blends industrial materials with nature-inspired artistry, perfect for adding a striking focal point to any modern or eclectic space.
Brutalism in sculpture, popular from the 1950s through the 1970s, emphasized raw textures, natural materials, and an abstract aesthetic that often revealed the process of construction. This sunflower sculpture exemplifies the Brutalist approach by using industrial metals with visible hammering and patina, creating a balance between organic form and industrial edge.
