Read MorePavel Rudolf (born 1973 in Opava, Czech Republic) is a Czech sculptor who has been creating steel sculptures for more than 25 years. Working with forged steel, he has developed a distinctive visual language that lies between abstraction and figuration. His works explore themes of human existence, relationships, emotions, and the search for harmony between matter and space. His sculptures have been exhibited in galleries and are represented by Galerie Chagall and Galerie Anděl. He lives and works in Opava, Czech Republic.
I prefer to create without preliminary sketches. My sculptures emerge directly through working with forged steel, allowing the material itself to influence the final form. I value freedom and spontaneity in the creative process and often work with reclaimed steel marked by time and corrosion. Through minimalist forms situated between abstraction and figuration, I explore human relationships, emotions, and the balance between matter and space. Each sculpture is a unique work and is never repeated.
