Metal in Motion | Kevin Dekker

Childers Arts Space

8 May | 5 July

Metal in Motion is a collection that challenges the cold hardness we often associate with steel. Having been forged, cut and carefully shaped, these metal works explore movement — fluid milk frozen mid-pour, flames rising and twisting, ripples in a metallic pond.

Using reclaimed and recycled materials such as Corten steel, stainless steel and reinforcing bar, The Metalist transforms strength into softness and weight into flow. Each sculpture captures a fleeting moment, solidifying energy, tension and motion into enduring form.

This collection invites viewers to reconsider metal — not as static or cold, but as expressive, dynamic and alive. The artist also offers the same experience with wood, stone and ceramics to display his diversity.
