Kenneth Price created "Interior with Sculpture", a print that captures an intimate yet enigmatic scene. Born in 1935, Price navigated a world increasingly shaped by mass media and shifting cultural identities. Here, the sculpture, with its biomorphic form, sits in contrast to the rigid geometry of the pink and brown interior. The sculpture, a stand-in for the body, becomes a site of tension. Is it an offering or a confrontation? The setting, while domestic, feels sterile, almost alienating. Price uses color to evoke mood, the pink hinting at femininity, while the brown grounds the scene in a somber reality. Price, who said he was interested in creating “something that was just itself," challenges traditional notions of representation. The artwork exists in the liminal space between abstraction and figuration. The sculpture demands attention not for what it represents, but for what it is: a form that invites our gaze and provokes our questions. The stark setting accentuates the sculpture’s presence, creating a visual dialogue about presence, absence, and the uncanny nature of being.
