Lene Kilde, a Norwegian artist, creates evocative sculptures that capture the essence of children’s emotions through their body language. Using a combination of wire mesh and concrete, Kilde focuses on sculpting only the hands and feet, leaving the rest to the viewer’s imagination. This minimalist approach highlights the purity and expressiveness of children’s non-verbal communication. Her work invites us to mentally fill in the gaps, creating a personal connection with each piece.
Kilde’s sculptures are a testament to the power of simplicity and the depth of human emotion. By isolating specific body parts, she emphasizes the importance of gestures and movements in conveying feelings. Her art not only captures the innocence and vulnerability of childhood but also encourages a deeper understanding of how we communicate without words. Through her innovative use of materials and her focus on body language, Kilde’s work resonates with audiences on an emotional and intellectual level.
