About Creator

This contemporary outdoor sculpture was forged from steel in a figurative and geometric form.

A masterful Canadian artist, Galina Stetco created this imposing architectural sculpture. Forged from steel, a lone figure stands beneath a towering geometric form that appears to resemble the structural beams of a building. The mild steel structure is painted an earthy brown; the figure is formed from fragments of welded stainless steel. Stetco’s forms are often inspired by her experience as an architect but her chosen themes are influenced by deeper questions in life.

“Art is an infinite playground for the mind, so let’s step into it!” Galina Stetco
