Laser-cut steel. Monica with Necklace, Hands Folded by Tom Wesselmann is a laser-cut steel sculpture created between 1985 and 1990, reflecting the artist’s innovative translation of drawing into three-dimensional form. Reduced to a continuous network of elegant contour lines, the work depicts a reclining nude wearing a necklace, with her hands gently folded across her body. By eliminating facial features and most interior detail, Wesselmann focuses on the expressive power of line, allowing negative space to become an integral part of the composition. The sculpture combines the immediacy of a sketch with the permanence of steel, extending the visual language of his celebrated Great American Nude series into sculpture. Produced in a rare edition of six, the work exemplifies Wesselmann’s refined exploration of form, sensuality, and minimal means.
