Barbara Hepworth
Forms (Brown, Grey and White), 1941
Reproduction gicl̩ee print on textured watercolour paper

During the Second World War, Hepworth could only draw at night and make a few plaster maquettes as her days were filled with running a nursery school, double-cropping a small garden for food, and trying to feed and protect her children. Drawings like Forms (Brown, Grey and White) (1941) allowed her to continue thinking about forms in space when she was unable to make physical objects. The crystalline structures relate to stringed sculptures that Hepworth had started making in 1939 and reflected her interest in science.

Materials: Gicl̩ee print on textured watercolour paper
Dimensions: 600 x 800 mm

Barbara Hepworth (1903–1975) is one of the most important artists of the 20th century. She was at the forefront of multiple avant-garde art movements, with wide-ranging interests that infused her work. Deeply spiritual and passionately engaged with political and technological change, Hepworth focused on the dynamic physical encounter with sculpture and how this could allow the viewer to both reflect on and alter their perceptions and experiences of the world.
