A 40 Year Retrospective
Cooroy Local since 1987 displays his lifes work
"The human figure fascinates me both as a source of complex shapes and forms and as a subject of great evocative power. In my work I use simplification, exaggeration and distortion in order to enhance the expressive quality of my figures. However, they remain firmly based in reality because, although I am well aware of the expressive potential of the underlying abstract forms, I need the emotive content of associations and mystery provided by the human image. I want my figures to look real in an unrealistic way; distorted but ‘possible’, capable of life, and as such, reflecting real life in their ‘un-realness’, their ambiguity, contradiction, even absurdity. To this end I like, for instance, to upset a near-traditional concept of a figure by a sudden gigantic arm, or to disturb a quiet harmony by an unexpected splash of Fauve colour. My large sculptures are constructed over steel armature from beaten and brazed copper sheets, with the joints in the metal accentuated to contradict the realism of the figure. Small sculptures I sometimes cast in bronze." Kaya Sulc
