Florian Wozniak’s practice has been described as ‘looking at people through the eyes of a poet’ and the artist maintains that the true prize is the satisfaction of ‘distilling something of value into a poetic image.’
The human form is at the heart of Wozniak’s expression. His work has an earthiness of form, but his sensuous, voluptuously proportioned sculptures often depict human beings in relationship with each other and the wider world.
His sculptures are infused with a sense of serenity which permeates the physical spaces that his sculptures inhabit.
There is a tenderness about this work entitled Couple – the figures look upwards and outwards, facing the outside world while holding and supporting each other, their arms intertwined and their combined mass rooting them to the earth.

For almost three decades Florian Wozniak has worked independently as a contemporary artist in South Africa. Working primarily in bronze, the artist’s smooth, figurative forms feel rooted to the earth and convey a powerful serenity. His sculptures are by turns tender and endearing, playful and witty; his characters often evoking pathos or humour.
