Sukhi Barber, a British sculptor, creates sublime surrealistic bronze sculptures that capture people in meditation. Her work is deeply influenced by her extensive study of Buddhist philosophy and traditional art techniques during her twelve years in Kathmandu, Nepal. Barber’s sculptures embody the peace and compositional balance of ancient devotional art, while also exploring complex philosophical ideas about the transcendence of our perceived reality. Each piece is meticulously crafted to highlight the interplay between form and spirit, inviting us to reflect on the deeper meanings of existence.
Barber’s art bridges Eastern and Western cultures, using negative space as a significant element in her sculptures. This approach emphasizes the importance of what is not immediately visible, suggesting a constant state of transformation and the hidden potentials within us all. Her work challenges us to engage with the meditative experience and the concept of transcendence, making her sculptures not only visually stunning but also intellectually and spiritually enriching.
