In Ballet, Canadian sculptor Robert Buick captures a moment of poised suspension—an abstract form that suggests movement, grace, and quiet strength. Crafted entirely in steel, the work arcs and twists in space like a figure mid-turn, evoking the tension and beauty of a dancer held in motion.

The surface is rich with natural steel patina—subtle variations of bronze, blue, and iron tones that catch light as the viewer moves around the piece. Buick’s hand is evident in each welded curve and angled plane, balancing industrial material with a sense of fluid gesture.

This 2025 work continues Buick’s exploration of form and movement in contemporary sculpture. At once grounded and airborne, Ballet speaks to the harmony between weight and lightness, stillness and motion—qualities that make it a striking centrepiece in any modern collection.
