About the Item
Shaun Gagg's "Torso 2p (Reverse)" offers a captivating exploration of form and material, presenting the back side of the female figure through a remarkable medium: 2p coins. This stunning life-size sculpture is meticulously crafted by welding together 2p coins, resulting in a mesmerizing mosaic that challenges traditional perceptions of beauty and value.
The concept behind this extraordinary piece delves into the intersection of art, currency, and identity. By utilizing coins as the primary building blocks, Gagg prompts viewers to reconsider the symbolic significance of money and its role in shaping societal perceptions of worth. Each coin carries its own narrative and history, symbolizing the interconnectedness of individual experiences within the broader social fabric.
Whether hung on the wall or displayed on a base, the sculpture becomes a focal point for contemplation and dialogue. The intricate arrangement of coins creates a textured surface that invites tactile exploration, while the life-size scale imbues the artwork with a commanding presence.
This versatile sculpture can be presented in multiple ways, allowing collectors to choose between wall hanging or display on a base. Please specify your preference when purchasing, as there is a slight difference in the rear of the sculpture depending on the chosen option.
Every sculpture is a testament to Gagg's craftsmanship and attention to detail, with subtle variations ensuring that each piece is truly unique. Additionally, for those interested in personalized touches, customizations such as incorporating magnetic keys or coins can be arranged through inquiry.
"Torso 2p (Reverse)" by Shaun Gagg transcends mere aesthetic appreciation, serving as a thought-provoking reflection on the intersection of art, commerce, and identity. Available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online, this exceptional sculpture offers a compelling addition to any discerning collector's repertoire.
