Jill Berelowitz
Aphrodite, Highly polished Bronze on bronze base, Jill Berelowitz

2021

About the Item

Aphrodite, 2021 The highly polished female torso enhances the magnificence of the human body's beauty, sensuality and inner spiritual illumination Highly polished Bronze on bronze base 17.6 x 15 x 7.1 cm 6 7/8 x 5 7/8 x 2 3/4 in. Edition of 9 (#1/9) --------- Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1955, Jill Berelowitz studied sculpture, first under Karen Jarozynska and then at the Johannesburg School of Art. Jill moved from her native South Africa to London 26 years ago and is one of the capital’s most innovative sculptors, known for her bronze, steel and optical resin works. Whether pursuing her long-standing passion for the intimacy and movement of the body, or flexibly working to a brief, Jill’s detailed understanding of anatomy and organic form gifts her work with sensual, contemporary appeal. Jill’s broad interpretations of life’s cycles and developments from within a solid core run through her diverse sculptural output, suggesting that the female nude is simultaneously a personal and a universal allegory for nothing less than the geography and continuity of humanity. Jill creates work focused on the human form and regeneration wherein bodies are simultaneously solid and abstracted, dynamic and fixed.
