Leisure Time 2 (Reclining Figure Sculpture)

This bronze figure reclines in a taut, elongated arc, its limbs stretched like quiet hinges between weight and release, turning the body into a landscape of strain softened by surrender. The patinated surface—darkened and mottled with green—catches light in scattered flecks, suggesting time’s slow weathering and the persistence of touch, while the smooth wooden plinth anchors the vulnerability of flesh to the certainty of craft. With the head tipped back and the hands drawn inward, the pose reads as both repose and silent reckoning, a private moment where desire, fatigue, and resilience occupy the same breath. The open negative space around the torso amplifies the sculpture’s inwardness, making absence feel as present as form.
