The very first glance at this and I fell in love. I love the colors inside and out, the natural pattern of the wood, the shape of it, the unexpected strings.. It's so different and reminds me of nature - land and sea. I'm not a materialistic person, but I want a few objects like this that just draw me in when I glance at them. 🥰
During a trip to Stromness on the Orkney Mainland I saw a few Hepworth sculptures at the Pier Art Museum... and they really did feel somehow connected to the landscape and stone buildings outside the gallery. Each one was as purely abstract and decidedly modern as the piece discussed here, but they just felt right sitting within the context of a small community built beside a dramatic coast.
She surpasses Henry Moore in my estimation. Possibly the greatest Neo-Romantic of her generation; in the way she abstracts, condenses, and distills. Like Rothko and Pollock...or late Monet and Matisse.
I always think I dislike modern art, but once I've learned about a piece, I begin to appreciate it. It'll never be my favorite type of art, but I like it more than I used to.

Hepworth's work is such a treat.
I'd definitely like to see more. Maybe she'll surprise me again later in the playlist. 🙂@@smarthistory-art-history
