Ina van Faassen - Seated man on a pedestal
Signed on the front of the sculpture.
This vibrant bronze sculpture by Ina van Faassen depicts a seated man who seems to be caught in the middle of a playful, almost leaping gesture. The long, expressive arms and legs give the work a striking lightness and movement, as if the figure might leap further at any moment. His slightly tilted head and open, curious gaze suggest a spontaneous interaction or a joyful wonder.
The rough modeling allows the light to playfully dance across the surface, emphasizing the dynamic nature of the pose. This gives the sculpture a tangible energy that is immediately visible from every angle. The compact base contrasts beautifully with the looseness of the body, giving the figure an almost theatrical presence. The asymmetrical pose, with one leg raised high, reinforces the sense of spontaneity, freedom, and joyful expression.
This artwork effortlessly combines charm, humor and character, making it a unique addition to any collection of vibrant figurative bronzes.
