In Susanne Storm’s sculptures, presence emerges through a material traditionally associated with weight: concrete. But her process destabilises this assumption.
She intervenes at a precise moment during the setting of the concrete, when it remains malleable. This short window requires quick and decisive actions: supporting, folding, letting fall, cutting. The resulting forms retain the movement that generated them—dense volumes that convey an unexpected lightness. Cracks, layers, and surface marks are not hidden; they are traces of transformation. For Storm, presence is not absolute but the result of a balance between tension and release.
