Feeling Big: Sculptor Thomas Lendvai

Feeling Big:

Sculptor Thomas Lendvai

Written by NYC Wedding Photographer Angela Cappetta Sculptor Thomas Lendvai.Brooklyn-based artist Thomas Lendvai transforms everyday construction materials into large-scale, site-responsive, sculpture-based experience.Through his work, Lendvai melds his knowledge of carpentry, taught to him by his Hungarian father at an early age. Along with his interest in modernist and post-modernist theory of sculpture, Thomas makes pieces that look deceptively light. In addition, philosophical and scientific definitions of time and space are inherent in his work.

Lendvai’s site-responsive installations make use of geometric forms, naturally.
