About the Item

Abstract geometric three-dimensional wood wall sculpture in shades of blue, green, teal, with contrasts of white "Peekin", made by Hudson Valley artist, Stephen Walling, in 2020 35 x 24 x 2.5 inches, carved and painted wood on wood panel Sides are painted white, no framing necessary Wire backing for secure installation Signed, verso This abstract, modern three-dimensional wall sculpture was made by sculptor, Stephen Walling, in 2020. The artist created the work by intricately incising strips of wood into three dimensional rectangular shapes and arranging them in geometric linear patterns. The faces of the wooden blocks were painted white while the hollowed centers were painted with a cool gradient color palette of blue, teal, and green. The rectangular blocks of wood are carved at various depths, adding interesting perspectives at all angles. The piece is in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. There is sturdy wire on the back to ensure easy installation. The sides are cleanly painted bright white so framing is optional. About the artist and work: Stephen Walling demonstrates a trained eye with wall relief sculptures of colorfully painted wood strips and blocks, intricately carved and composed into graphic arrangements. Although Walling’s sculptures are crafted around a dedication to color and shape, his newest body of works reveals a shift in inspiration and evolution in studio process. In earlier work, the artist took his cues from nature; representational forms based on the shapes of trees, slopes of the Catskill mountains and even aerial views were most prevalent. He also experimented with photo-collage, pasting images of back lit forests on varying heights of wood. More recently, Walling has found increasing comfort in the possibilities of abstraction. Walling now follows a kind of ‘mind-map’, influenced by almost anything and everything, when creating a new sculpture. The premeditated image leads Walling to the selection of all colors, shapes, and arrangements. Recent work demonstrates a fascination with light and shadow. Individual pieces of intricately carved wood unite to create various shadows that work to create a dazzling optical illusion. Ranging depths of wood are often enhanced with color painted on different sides of each block. This hint of color encourages the viewer’s eye to travel throughout Walling’s surfaces as perspective reveals transitions in palette and shadow.
