Cell 1991

"Cell" is a minimalist sculpture by Danish artist Absalon, created in 1991. The work consists of three white, geometric forms: a large cylinder, a smaller cylinder, and a cube-like form with rounded edges. These simple forms evoke a sense of starkness and austerity, characteristic of Minimalism. Absalon's work often explores the relationship between form and space, and how these elements can be used to create a sense of isolation and introspection. His tragically short career (he died at the age of 29), cut short by a car accident, resulted in a small but powerful body of work.
