Orla de Brí: BOUND
From Friday 6 March to Saturday 28 March Solomon Fine Art is delighted to host a solo exhibition of new work by the renowned Irish sculptor Orla de Brí. In this, de Brí’s fourth solo exhibition with Solomon, the artist explores what, as humans, we are bound to and bound by as we navigate our lives; “We are bound to live, to change, to communicate, to protect, to explore, to be, to love. We are bound by time, rules, gender and to be part of nature”.
Working with bronze, Corten steel and a variety of patinas, de Brí has created a total of 18 elegant figurative sculptures which respond to the personal and collective challenges of modern life. Among these is the stunning central work Bound, a 3-meter-high female figure precariously balanced on a skirt of branches tied tightly around her waist, emphasizing our connection to and reliance on the natural world.
