Gosia’s Bold, Emotional New Sculptures

Gosia, a Poland-born, Toronto-based sculptor, creates feminine figures with touches of the surreal, whether reflecting the natural world or expressions that extend from inside of the characters themselves. Each of these sculptures contain both elegance and emotional complexity, often containing a new sense of drama at each angle. The artist was featured in Hi-Fructose Vol. 41, and she was last mentioned on HiFructose.com here.

“Beneath the Waves,” a recent piece from the artist, was recently part of the group show “Beneath the New Waves,” which explored underwater realism and surrealism. The sculpture, crafted in polymer gypsum, embodies the artist’s ability to use the body as both a canvas and foundation to create something new entirely.


“Color and line are important elements in my work.” the artist said, in a statement. “They help to capture and communicate the most important aspect of my work, emotion. I am a sensitive person, and while I create whatever I feel somehow gets trapped inside the art. The viewers feel that same emotion. It has become the norm that whenever someone talks to me about my one of my pieces, they inevitably end up describing to me how they feel when they look at it, as well as what they see.”

Most aspiring artists' dream is to quit their 9-to-5. Isaac Cordal's miniature sculptures make us acutely aware of the soul-sucking nature of a creatively unstimulating environment driven by habit and routine. Cordal molds legions of tiny, middle-aged men in suits who navigate dreary, oppressive environments. He places them in dioramas and sometimes even outdoors, creating scenes by utilizing elements of the existing architecture. His solo show "Moments de Solitude" opens on February 5 at Spacejunk Art Centers in Bayonne, France and will be on view there through April 4. The exhibit will travel to Spacejunk's other locations in Lyon (April 16 through June 6) and Grenoble (June 19 through July 25).
Paola Idrontino's massive textile sculpture “Evanescent” depicts the scourge of coral bleaching in the world’s oceans, brought on by climate change. The work, which took years to complete, was recently on display at Museu del Disseny de Barcelona. Idrontino's practice includes textiles, wearable art, and photography.
Collective Poncili Creacion combines puppetry, performance, and sculpture for odd, vibrant shows across the globe. The group, led by identical twins Pablo and Efrain Del Hierro, describes itself as facilitating “interactions between the fields of Objects and Reality.” In each of their projects, they refer to the wearable creatures and interactive sculptures they build as “objects.”
The work of Australian artist Ian Strange is a mix of installation, photography, sculpture, and architecture. In these site-specific works, Strange will use an entire house as a canvas, filming his efforts to further explore concepts like “home” or “suburbia.” A recent pop-up exhibition of "Suburban" at New York’s Standard Practice Gallery featured large-scale photographs and video that documented his so-called “interventions.”
