Renowned for her sculptural craft, Sora Kimberlain engages deeply with marble, a material she describes as both demanding and endlessly compelling. Formed over vast stretches of geological time, marble carries a sense of history and resilience that informs her approach. Its simultaneous elegance and ruggedness present both challenges and rewards—qualities that continue to draw her into an ongoing dialogue with the stone.

Working with hand chisels alongside power and pneumatic tools, Kimberlain approaches carving as a process of discovery, extracting shapes from within the material, seeking a passionate, sensual form that can be experienced by the viewer. The resulting sculptures balance strength and fluidity, revealing a sensitivity to both mass and movement.

This exhibition also features a series of works on paper that re-shape Kimberlain’s sculptural explorations and bring them within the realm of the two dimensional. These works translate her methodical physical process into a more immediate, energetic form of line and color that adds an expressionistic voice to the connection. Together, the sculptures and works on paper create a cohesive presentation, illuminating the interconnected nature of her practice.

By placing these mediums in conversation, Kimberlain invites viewers to consider how form evolves across material boundaries.
