Conceived as a meditation on the artist at work, Standing Figure explores the solitary act of creation through a raw, textured visual language. Radell draws on the linear intensity of Giacometti and the weighty, sculptural forms of Rouault—merging gesture and structure into a deeply felt image. The result is both a self-reflection and an archetype: the figure as maker, caught in the act of becoming.
