This sculpture  is part of a series  investigating the fragmenting of shapes, here using the the shape of the torus as its central motif. A continuous geometric  " primitive" shape, it embodies  a sense of infinite circular motion, and when sliced produces interesting wedge shaped  parts.


Made in steel with a "corten" rust like patina, contrasted with the crisp off white gloss of the segments.

Edition 1/3  the sculpture can be swivelled on its pivot point.

Auto lacquer and steel on solid wood base , with ebony oil finish.

Paul Stein was born in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1956 , and lives and works out of his studio in Cape Town. He works in the medium of metal and mixed media sculpture, and his works are in collections both in South Africa and abroad. I work primarily within the direct metal approach to sculpture, as opposed to the cast metal method. My raw materials are sheets of steel or aluminium which I shape towards the desired end. I am drawn towards simplicity in form and the idea of stating an idea with minimum fuss. I find inspiration in many things, but my prime area of interest at the moment is using the medium of sculpture to express human intent. I am also interested in the idea of fragmentation, of form, movement and implied movement in sculpture. How do you alter the static nature of sculpture, and make it come alive?
