description
Emily Young, often called “Britain’s greatest living stone carver,” is celebrated for her ability
to allow geology’s ancient memory to emerge as human presence. Lunar Form I, carved in
white onyx, exemplifies this dialogue between the cosmic and the corporeal. Bowman
Sculpture has long been a leading source for Young’s work, having represented her during her
most acclaimed years in the early 2000s. Today the gallery continues to place only the finest
examples, drawn from private collections, offering connoisseurs access to her most resonant
pieces at fair market levels. Lunar Form I embodies the timeless fusion of material, memory,
and identity at the heart of the presentation.
