About this work

This is a photo of a rough, white sculpture carved from a single block of stone. The figure is hunched over, with one arm bent across its chest and the other resting on its knee. The rock still shows where the chisel marks are, and the shape looks like it’s mid-motion, like someone just stopped moving. The sculpture’s raw, uneven surface makes it feel more like a sketch than a finished piece. It’s not polished or smooth—just raw stone shaped into a human form. If you like this style, check out Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like it.
