Canadian sculptor Troy Coulterman, first featured in Hi-Fructose Vol. 27, creates colorful and surprisingly illustrative figures. Working mostly with resin and steel painted with acrylic, Coulterman's works enhance the quirkiness of every day people. For his current exhibition at Arch Enemy Arts gallery in Philadelphia, "Full Disclosure", Coulterman attaches geometric shapes to his subjects. In his show statement, he explains the meaning behind these strange appendages: "I chose these basic shapes because they are loaded with symbolism and have various meanings throughout different cultures. A triangle can represent future, truth or intellect, a circle can represent present, perfection or emotion and a square can represent past, destiny or beauty. Depending on who the viewer is these shapes can hold different meanings and that's what drew them to me.”
