The sculpture presents a female torso - a fragmentary body deprived of head, arms, and legs, reduced to the core as a concentrated site of tension and meaning. The form is mounted on a steel stand that functions both as a structural and symbolic element. A metal construction encircles the hips like a corset, while a steel rod penetrates the body from back to front and is fixed with a bolt, visibly intervening in the form and emphasising its submission to a technical framework.
Cyberpunk Aesthetics in Contemporary Sculpture
The body of the sculpture is made of polystyrene, fibreglass, and a specialised hardening compound. Embedded within the surface are mechanical and electronic components, including computer ports of both older and more recent generations. These elements suggest the possibility of connection, transmission, and data storage. The body is presented not solely as a biological form, but as a potential carrier of information - an interface prepared for interaction with an external system.
Fragmented Female Form in a Technological Framework
Numerous wires and cables are interwoven into the structure of the sculpture, forming the impression of internal wiring or an exposed, unstable network. Their presence evokes a sense of constant energy flow and internal pressure, as if the object were operating under a condition of sustained overload.
Body, Pressure, and Machine
In place of a head, the sculpture features a pressure gauge whose needle points towards high values. This element implies an accumulation of energy and a state of internal agitation or boiling intensity. Expression is replaced by measurement - an impersonal indicator that reduces emotion to pressure and force.
The Female Body Between Flesh and System
Positioned at the intersection of corporeality and technology, body and machine, the sculpture resonates with a cyberpunk aesthetic in which the organism becomes a constructed system, subject to technical intervention and control. The work is held in Poland, within the largest private collection of the artist’s works in the country.
