Richard Serra sculptures

Richard Serra’s sculptures are powerful explorations of mass, space and perception. Using industrial materials such as steel, Serra creates monumental, site-specific installations that engage the viewer physically and spatially. His works often consist of massive, curving forms that invite interaction, transforming the surrounding environment. Works like Tilted Arc (1981) and his Torqued Ellipses series, which feature spiralling, curved walls, exemplify how Serra’s sculptures emphasise the relationship between form, space and gravity. The viewer’s movement around and through these works creates a dynamic, ever-changing experience, highlighting the physical presence of the sculpture.
