This dramatic “Strongman” torso by Australian glass artist Crystal Stubbs is a commanding sculptural work that showcases her signature approach to form, movement, and anatomical abstraction.
The piece is constructed in layered green and clear glass, the colours folding and twisting through the body to create a sense of internal energy and muscular tension. Stubbs’ sculptural language is unmistakable here: the torso appears to rise and twist, with fluid contours that give the figure a sense of motion frozen in glass.
At 5.1 kg and 32 cm high, this is a substantial, gallery‑scale work with real presence. The interplay of transparency and saturated green creates depth and dimensionality, while the sculpted ridges and protrusions catch the light in shifting, dramatic ways.
Stubbs’ figurative works are highly sought after. This sculpture bridges the worlds of contemporary sculpture, studio glass, and expressive anatomical form.
A significant acquisition for collectors of contemporary Australian glass sculpture.
