About the Item

Junction II is a wood sculpture (poplar) by Wouter van der Vlugt, dimensions are 45 × 44 × 40 cm (17.7 × 17.3 × 15.7 in). It is a unique signed piece and it comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. This sculpture, created from wood, reflects the artist’s deep appreciation for the material’s natural qualities — its texture, scent, and tactile appeal. Wouter van der Vlugt exclusively uses local woods, selected for their size, which he views as the foundation of their sculptural potential. With respect for this living material, he balances his creative vision with the wood’s natural imperfections, shapes, knots, and charred elements, allowing them to guide his process. Wouter van der Vlugt’s work explores the interplay of form, light, and material, blending organic shapes inspired by nature with geometric, architectural structures. By carving deeply into the wood, he transforms solid, imposing forms into airy, dynamic pieces that convey movement and vitality. Born in 1970, the Dutch artist lives and works in Luxembourg. Since the 2000s, he has showcased his work at galleries, fairs, and biennales across Europe, including the prestigious Révélations biennale at the Grand Palais (Paris, 2017 and 2019) and the Homo Faber exhibition at the Giorgio Cini Foundation (Venice, 2022).

Abstract wood Sculpture: "Untitled"
By Kelly Bugden + Van Wifvat
Located in New York, NY
The artistic collaboration of Kelly Bugden + Van Wifvat has produced a thought-provoking body of sculptures, paintings, and constructions. Nature, childhood memories, and everyday archetypes take shape in unexpected combinations of materials. The works emerged as the tactile and visual senses channeled the ritualistic power and materiality of selected artifacts. The resulting objects exist in a space between what they were originally and what they could become. A wheel, for example, is distorted as if seen through a prism. Their collaboration grew out of years of shaping materials into one-of-a-kind objects. Intuitively, the process of creating with their hands took an inward turn. Prism is a travelogue through memories and dreams, yielding abstract forms that capture moments of transformation. Van Wifvat grew up with eight siblings and studied sculpture and environmental design in Minneapolis at MCAD. In 1979, he opened a storefront art gallery to promote the work of local artists. The space featured printed materials—art books, periodicals, fanzines, and postcard’s. Wifvat moved to New York in 1983 to study at the Fashion Institute of Technology and Parsons. In 1987, he co-founded Van Gregory & Norton design studio, specializing in convex mirrors and curtain hardware...
