The vertical composition unfolds through a sequence of repeated angular elements, creating a layered silhouette that evokes both architectural structure and stylised natural growth.

the work reflects a lineage of geometric abstraction rooted in dutch modernist thinking, where order, proportion and reduction form the core vocabulary. Subtle references to constructivist and concrete art principles can be recognised in the disciplined repetition and axial balance of the composition.

strict geometry is softened by material warmth. Each projecting arm is carefully aligned along the central axis, generating a controlled upward movement. The repetition produces cadence and spatial depth, while the visible oak grain tempers the formal rigor with organic texture.

rather than decorative, the sculpture operates through proportion and construction. It stands as a measured exploration of line, balance and vertical expansion a contemporary object grounded in restraint and structural clarity.

about the artist

working with solid oak, steur allows the natural grain and warmth of the material to temper the strict geometry of her forms, resulting in sculptures that balance architectural precision with organic presence.
