Stephen Schofield has been working with plastics and plasticity for over forty years. His sculptures give shape to the rise and fall of respiration, digestion, gestation, and other bodily functions, making tactile the membranes that contain and compose our fleshy substance. Combined with other, more rigid materials, plastics allow him to animate the dynamic and tensile rhythms of our corporeality.
