Two bodies, fused together, headless, gleaming in a smoky sheen – Melted Union is an expression of intense physical and psychological intimacy. The fusion is not complete: the forms press into one another, overlap, blur their outlines, yet remain legibly two. The sculptural surface oscillates between smooth curvature and rough tension – a sensual language of form that speaks equally of vulnerability and strength.
Here, Berger’s expressive physicality comes to the fore. The title suggests both melting and emotional dissolution – a union not constructed but seemingly formed in a moment of raw intensity. The cast aluminum, normally associated with industrial coldness, gains emotional resonance through this fragmented composition.
