Spine Gear Sculpture
Spine Gear Sculpture Dimensions: 40″ Diameter X 8″ Deep
A Karl Geckler’s masterpiece, spine gear sculpture is a commanding sculptural work-in-progress that powerfully explores the intersection of organic anatomy and industrial mechanics. With its 40-inch diameter and 8-inch depth, this large-scale piece reimagines the human spine as part of a mechanical gear. Ultimately merging natural rhythm with engineered design in a way that is both bold and thought-provoking.
The sculpture features vertebrae-like ridges that suggest movement, structure, and continuity. These ridged forms radiate from a hollow circular center. A feature that reinforce ideas of transformation, balance, and the cyclical nature of both machinery and the human body. A compelling contrast between smooth, polished surfaces and rough, textured areas adds depth and complexity. Furthermore, enhancing the visual experience as light interacts with every curve and edge.
Spine Gear is more than a physical object—it’s a conceptual exploration of structure, resilience, and the ways organic systems and human-made forms can reflect one another. Whether viewed in a gallery, public space, or architectural setting, this sculpture invites viewers to engage with ideas of anatomy, motion, and the mechanical world through a refined, artistic lens.
Currently in progress, this one-of-a-kind piece is a testament to Karl Geckler’s sculptural mastery and conceptual vision.
