IRIS – FIGURATIVE BRONZE SCULPTURE | NANDO KALLWEIT
Iris (2017) is a limited-edition figurative bronze sculpture by German artist Nando Kallweit, presented here as edition no. 4 of 25. Measuring 26 × 4 × 3 cm, the artwork depicts a reclining female figure with elongated proportions and a distinctive horizontal composition. One arm bends towards the head, while the other extends outward, creating a subtle tension between stillness and movement.The dark patinated bronze surface reveals variations in texture and tone, while the gently curved torso, angular shoulders and extended legs create a refined sculptural silhouette. Viewed from different perspectives, the figure reveals an interplay between abstraction and recognisable human anatomy, with light accentuating the contours and faceted surfaces.
Through its simplified form and restrained gesture, Iris reflects Nando Kallweit’s distinctive approach to contemporary figurative sculpture. The composition conveys a quiet sense of repose, balanced by the expressive relationship between the figure’s limbs and body. Its intimate scale and understated presence make it particularly suited to contemporary interiors, architectural spaces and private collections of modern bronze sculpture.
This limited-edition sculpture is individually signed by Nando Kallweit, with the edition number stamped into the base. A Certificate of Authenticity is available upon request.
