ArtDXB featured The Business Man sculpture “an interwoven portrayal of business ethics and the speculative nature of masculine form. It is constructed using a delicately woven lace, which is a paradoxical artistic approach that can be seen as a surreal interpretation of a masculine image representing power relations.” The piece is by artist Ozan Oganer, from Izmir in Turkey. Born in Turkey in 1973 he graduated from the Sculpture Department in the Faculty of Fine Arts at Dokuz eylül University in 2002. He specialises in statues made of lace and embroidery.
