Looking to the wire sculpturer Derek Kinzett's work today ... His work represents the idea that not all modern British sculpture sets out to shock. Derek Kinzett's work boasts an intriguing and unpretentious value.



Plainly titled The Green Man, this 5kg wire scupture is a beautiful study of the human form in a seated position. The figure leans forward creating an energy in the piece, yet this figure does not look like he's ready for action. Focus your attention to his hands apprehinsively clenching his kness , right elbow feigning away, bent down. The left foot presses the sculpture back , he does not wish to stand but push himself back. Curiousity wins over the initial fear as the piece leans forward in question , what is it he is searching for.
Lighting and surrounding plays a large role in this piece , the white wall and natural light and shadow accentuates the figure ... he would be lost in a darker room ..
