Matteo (Male Figure Head)

Description

This serene figure head captures a moment of blissful transition as the subject either emerges from or sinks into a body of water.

Feuerman’s sculptures have a presence that is both contemporary and classical. While it is not uncommon for hyperrealist work to seem cold and unapproachable, Feuerman’s bathers are balanced and calm, and unexpectedly intimate and inviting. The painstaking process of layering paint and resin takes many months to complete, resulting in a realistic finish and meticulous detail.
