{"product_id":"stella-hamberg","title":"Stella Hamberg","description":"Stella Hamberg is an exceptional figure in  contemporary sculpture. Starting out from a reflected  contemporary vocabulary of forms, her sculptures  feature mainly human figures, but also animals,  suffused with an elemental intensity that comprises  self - asser tion and vitality as well as failure and death. The sculptress Stella Hamberg (b. 1975) usually opts  for the classical material bronze which has  traditionally combined durability with metamorphosis,  if only in the amalgamation of different metals  achieved through melting. Essential to the figures she  creates are their existence in time and ability to  transform, as well as eternity in the moment. Seeking  to express the spiritual in the physical forms  - from  the overall pose down to the subtleties of sculptu ral  detail and the surface shimmer  - has been a concern  of sculptors ever since antiquity. The reinterpretation  of this grand tradition is one aspect of the topicality of  her works.","brand":"Hirmer Verlag GmbH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42664263680036,"sku":"9783777427928","price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9783777427928.jpg?v=1777351874","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/stella-hamberg","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
