40 Sculpture

Created in white concrete and waxed, this abstract work depicts a posing woman. Clark Camilleri has created many works devoted to the female form, this piece is another fine example. The design used is mostly angular and sharp; purposeful accentuating the figure, giving it more power and presence. Sculptures created in concrete are made using a combination of layering and carving; addition and subtraction. Concrete is added gradually to a rigid frame, as it cures more layers are then added or removed as the form develops. A process requiring time and focus, often taking weeks or months to complete a single piece. The final result offers a unique work with a surface layer comprising of multiple layers meshed and intertwined together.
