Steve Winterburn is known for his power and dynamics, so it was only a matter of time before he captured the dominance of the bull in sculpture.
“Get off my Back” is exactly that, the abstracted and compelling tooling strokes instantly hit you when you first lay eyes on this piece. The way Steve has sculpted the surface makes it command the space that surrounds this sculpture and really drives home the narrative of dominance and strength that he wanted to create for this artwork.
The real mastery however came into play when composing the bull, the moment that has been encapsulated in this sculpture is truly breathtaking, poised off one leg with all limbs and tail flared this piece is an explosion of expression. When partnered with the striking textures created, Steve’s skills create a showstopping work of art that demands an audience in any environment.
