Dynamic metal figure study flying forward by Carl Sean McMahon, layered steel form and anatomy

Figure Study Series

Series Overview

Concept
The Figure Study series explores the intricacies of the human form. Each figure's pose is designed to illustrate the contraction and expansion of specific muscle groups. Rather than following a predetermined outcome, the sculpture evolves organically throughout the creative process.


Development
Reclaimed metal serves as the primary material for these sculptures. Each component is carefully selected for its natural characteristics and integrated into the work. The chosen elements are evaluated based on how effectively they represent the human anatomy.

Latest Development

"Figure Study V" is the most recent sculpture in the series, while "Figure Study VI" is currently in development.
