Randy Cooper “Melanie” Mesh Shadow Sculpture

Design Plus Gallery presents “Melanie” an original sculpture by Randy Cooper. This intriguing shadow sculpture is made of hand-formed wire mesh from Czechoslovakia, powder-coated for a durable finish. A beatuiful nude sculpture, it is unique and made by the hand of the artist using methods he developed. The art is best presented on a pedestal about a foot or two away from the wall, spotlighted to throw a shadow.

“Randy Cooper began creating intriguing and magical sculptures in wire mesh and has developed all of the techniques that he uses in making his “Shadow Sculptures” on his own. These are forms created in wire screen that cast lovely shadows on the wall when lit with a light source. Indeed, sometimes the shadows seem to show more detail than the original sculpture and instill a feeling of magic into the creation. These “Shadow Sculptures” have been sweeping the United States and the world for the past few years, highlighting many private collections throughout the world, and Randy Cooper has become a major force among America’s contemporary artists.”
