Her work provides one universal visual language that everyone understands Yoran’s sculptures reflect human emotions primarily through stance and posture. Whether the emotions are joy, grief or strength, Yoran’s sculptures succinctly capture a feeling everyone can identify with.
— TREVISAN GALLERY
Solid yet sinuous, Varda Yoran’s contemporary figural sculpture is an exercise in grace. In her own work, the expressive instrument is the human body. Her pieces are monochrome, stylized, and often only a foot in height, but they are excellent representations of the figure in motion.
— ARTisSPECTRUM
Israeli-American artist Varda Yoran creates dynamic, emotive sculptures that explore the simultaneous simplicity and complexity of the realms of emotive expression and physical movement. A hallmark of Yoran’s sculpture is her definitive use of shape, whether demarcated by sharp edges, smooth surfaces, gentle curves, or undulating lines.
