Thomas J Price on ‘Moments Contained’

Описание: Go behind the scenes with British artist Thomas J Price who is unveiling a new 12ft sculpture titled ‘Moments Contained’ at this year’s Art Basel Unlimited.

For almost two decades, Thomas J Price has sought to dismantle the power structures propagated by traditional sculpture, prompting his viewers to question who society deems worthy of a monument. Using traditional materials and innovative digital sculpting techniques to create profoundly radical and highly original sculptures, Price inverts societal expectations and assumptions.

‘Moments Contained’ (2022) returns to the same fictional character Price created for his widely celebrated sculpture ‘Reaching Out’ (2020), reconfiguring the subject in a new scale and pose and highlighting subtle shifts in presentation and perception that resonate throughout his practice. In ‘Moments Contained,’ Price has created an exceptional monument that reassesses the history and legacy of statuary.
