Mark Tarabula

Conditions of the human body, concepts of sexuality, and the connection between surface and form have guided my work. In all of my sculptural series, there is tension between the surface treatment and the physical shapes. Each sculpture lures viewers with sensual curves and silhouettes that tease intimate nakedness made of pieces molded from different bodies and combined to make forms that are both abstractly ambiguous and individually figurative. The essential response to the abstracted human forms was an unconscious attraction that defies heteronormative cultural norms and rather incited, directly through form, theories of gender and sexual fluidity.
