About Artist

Ron Mueck, known for his highly detailed and life-like sculptures, explores deep human emotions such as vulnerability, anxiety, and resilience. His works often challenge perceptions of scale and reality, evoking powerful individual reflections. Since garnering attention with his participation in “Sensation: Young British Artists from the Saatchi Collection” at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in 1997, he has since held solo exhibitions around the world.

In addition to the sculptures, the exhibition also includes photographs and films documenting Mueck’s creative process, giving the audience a behind-the-scenes look at his meticulous studio practices.
