Steve Keister explores color, material, planes, and volume in the construction of hard-edged, angular forms. Untitled (Red) employs several materials, focusing on the surface treatment and texture of the irregular polygon. Red suede softens a shape that is expected to be rigid, and light passing through the sculpture reveals its lavender painted interior.
