Green Circuit

About Green Circuit

This playful and minimalist bright green sculpture is by Alexander Caldwell. The Calgary-based artist forges contemporary sculptures from stainless steel—this piece is a fluid circuit of loops. Industrial paint is applied in layers to create a flawless glossy finish. The bold colour palette accentuates the dynamic form of this sculpture which almost appears to be in motion.

“Whether seeming to levitate against a wall or hover off a plinth, Caldwell’s sculptures become a skillful play on visual surprise and pleasure.” Winsor Gallery
