Folds is a new series by Nicole Farhi in which she explores the beauty of the human figure, focusing on the shapes and curves formed by folds of flesh on parts of the female body.
Inviting two friends to sit for the portraits – Sue Tilley, former muse of Lucian Freud, and Paola Barone– Farhi cast areas of their bodies in plaster, creating life-size replicas of their curves, before casting the sculptures in Jesmonite and bronze. With each piece depicting different sections of the body, the finished works are abstract in their appearance. Featuring over 20 sculptures, Folds at Beaux Arts will be Nicole Farhi’s largest solo exhibition to date.
