About the Item
This abstract outdoor sculpture is figurative and minimalist in form.
In this engaging abstract sculpture by Robert Clarke-Ellis, two figures appear to dance together. White painted, half-moon shapes top blue and red stick-like pieces intersect as if embracing one another.
The Toronto artist creates expressive pieces in minimalist form forged out of steel with clean bold lines; often in vivid colours.
“The "humanness” of the figures speaks to the viewer to elicit a memory." Clarke-Ellis
