Lives and works in New York, US
Tora Schultz is a Danish sculptor. Her affinity for existing objects is profound as is her way of going about them. Operating in the opaque intersection between producing and preserving, her methods include shaping, bending, burning, disclosing. A preoccupation with meticulous treatments of hard materials is often seen in her work, with an equal devotion to bare their internal qualities while exposing functional assets and shortcomings. Tora Schultz applies a discrete insistence on the handmade and the wordless.
