Isabel Miramontes art
Isabel Miramontes (born 1962) is a Spanish-born Belgian sculptor. She is known for disproportionate bronze sculptures of the human figure.
Miramontes generally uses bronze as a medium in sculpture. She exhibits the human body's motion and splits it into strips, spirals and twisted forms, and this fluidity is contrasted by the face which is of blank expression. A sense of drama and tension is implied with this juxtaposition. Miramontes aims to convey not just the physical activity but also the emotional one — representing the psyche’s ambiguous power and fragility, dreams and successes, or desire for isolation and freedom.
