Walter Moroder. Figures of Presence and Absence

With a nod to classical sculpture, Moroder constructs human-like figures at once present and absent, imbued with existentialism

Working in oak wood, bronze and plaster, South Tyrolean sculptor Walter Moroder (born 1963) creates life-size, full-body figures that, much like the ancient Greek korai, seem somewhat removed from human existence, gazing into a perpetual beyond.
