Figure for Landscape

Mediums: bronze.
Location: The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden (Washington, DC, the USA).

The work is a vertically oriented hollow sculpture with characteristic through holes. The bizarre, as if constantly changing shape of the sculpture reveals its fragile internal essence, and creates a variety of associations. From different points of view, the monument resembles a seashell, an unbroken bud or a human figure wrapped in a cloak. Barbara Hepworth always sought to combine sculptural compositions with the surrounding landscape and make them not alien objects against the backdrop of nature, but its organic part that complements the landscape.
