Matador is a sculptural work that blends material honesty with emotional intensity. Made from natural Douglas Fir, this vertical sculpture commands presence with its clean geometry and contrasting inlay. The central feature—a red threaded rectangle – creates tension and intrigue, symbolically evoking energy, ritual, and confrontation. Beneath the red thread lies a hidden Verdi-Gris patinated copper sheet, subtly visible through the weave, adding richness and depth to the visual experience.
