Heel Kick 002 by Peter Jensen


One artist who truly captures the feel of our exhibition is Peter Jensen. He is a Dutch artist who studied physics and philosophy. He uses movement and shapes of the human body to create energetic artworks. Jensen’s main works are in his line, “Human Motion.” Throughout his works like the two within our exhibition, “Heel Kick 02,” and “Thomas Flair,” the artist captures sequences of human movements in space and time, in a single frame. “Heel Kick 02,” is made of bronze, it depicts a nude man balancing on one foot going through the motions of lifting his left leg to extend out into a high kick. The artwork appears to be many frames taken of this motion combined to create one frame and one image. It appears to be moving, or captured moving, within slow motion
