About
Why this artist matters now
Carol Hepper is an American sculptor working in cast bronze, steel, and stone whose practice bridges geometric abstraction and organic form. Since the 1970s, her work has engaged with land art and minimalist traditions while developing a distinct formal vocabulary that resists easy categorization within either camp. Her sculptures occupy space with a deliberate material presence, emphasizing the weight and durability of her chosen materials.
