Split Cube 1962

"Split Cube," a 1962 sculpture by Jeremy Moon (1934-1973), presents a minimalist, abstract composition. The work consists of a series of white cubes, seemingly detached and scattered, yet ultimately forming a unified form. The cubes are assembled in an unstable configuration, suggesting a state of flux and fragmentation. This approach reflects Moon's interest in exploring the nature of space and form through a process of decomposition and reconstruction. The use of a simple geometric form like the cube, along with the interplay of light and shadow, contributes to the sculpture's austere and contemplative aesthetic.
