UK-based artist Richard Stainthorp captures the human form in his wire sculptures made with metal wire. Its special feature is to capture, accurately, all the energy and fluidity of the human body. By doing this, he gives the work an undeniable presence. They don’t have any facial features, but through their body language, we understand their emotions.

Stainthorp has created these alluring artworks for almost 20 years. The original goal was to use a one-dimensional line, or lines to produce three dimensional works of art that would follow the curves of the female body from all angles. Although he is close to mastering this skill, he continues to perfect and develop new techniques to make this happen. Now, his body of work features incredible human nudes, angels and trees — all created by manipulating two dimensional lines.
