The subject of Don Brown’s five new figurative sculptures is ‘Yoko’, Don Brown’s wife.
With this project Brown pursues a sculptural ideal, a perfection of form, and Brown’s exact measurements of Yoko’s skeletal structure are reduced to exactly half scale to intensify our analysis of its beauty. Like a contemporary ‘eve’, Yoko is presented to us in a number of forms, clothed, naked, in high heels, completely draped in a cloth, offering us endless possibilities of cool, scientific examination of her form.
