"Redoubt" is a 2019 sculpture by Matthew Barney that features a large, abstract form. It is made of a variety of materials, including metal and wood, and the artist has crafted a textured surface with a silver and copper finish. The artwork is installed on the floor of a gallery, and the installation appears to be made of tree branches, but they have been abstracted into an abstract form. Barney's work is often characterized by its exploration of themes of the body, nature, and mythology. "Redoubt" is a complex and intriguing artwork that invites viewers to explore its many layers of meaning.
