I’VE NEVER SEEN YOU LOOKING SO LOVELY AS YOU DID TONIGHT is a large-scale sculptural
form mounted on wheeled metal legs, its structure partially concealed beneath layers of fur
coats. The fur drapes unevenly over the body of the work, softening its silhouette while
obscuring a rigid core composed of interlocking metal planes. These angular forms press
outward from the center, intermittently visible through gaps in the fur, suggesting an
armored interior held in tension with its decorative skin.
The sculpture oscillates between mobility and display, organism and apparatus. The wheels
introduce the possibility of movement, yet the object reads as ceremonial rather than
functional—a rolling figure poised between elegance and threat. Fur operates
simultaneously as surface, costume, and disguise, while the exposed metal geometry asserts
weight, structure, and containment. What emerges is a body assembled from contradiction:
softness masking hardness, adornment wrapped around control, intimacy stretched over an
industrial frame that refuses to disappear.
