Everything in the Wind – Sculpture by Joris Verdonkschot

Dimensions (H × W × D): 57 × 45 × 13 cm

Alles in de Wind is a restrained yet powerful bronze sculpture of a woman who seems to surrender to the elements.

Chased bronze male torso — Trojan Kore by Joris Verdonkschot

Trojan Kore – Sculpture by Joris Verdonkschot

Dimensions (H × W × D): 64 × 32 × 23 cm
Material: bronze

Trojan Kore is a powerful male torso in chased bronze. Its muscular back and defined forms convey physical strength and inner concentration. The rough texture and careful detailing give the sculpture an archetypal presence: timeless, robust and restrained.

The sculpture evokes heroism and mythical masculinity without heaviness. It combines classical inspiration with a modern, minimalist approach to the male body.

Chased bronze torso — Corinthian Kore by Joris Verdonkschot

Corinthian Kore – Sculpture by Joris Verdonkschot

Dimensions (H × W × D): 64 × 33 × 23 cm
Material: bronze

Corinthian Kore is an elegant bronze torso inspired by the classical sculpture tradition. The female form is reduced to its essence: strength, calm and refinement. The chased finish emphasises the tension between smooth and rough surfaces, giving the work a tactile vitality.

This sculpture is a contemporary tribute to the archaic Kore figures of ancient Greece, reborn in modern bronze with a subtle sense of depth.
