The Lowcountry Review

Literature, Art, and History of the South Carolina Lowcountry

Selected Works: Stephen Kishel

Stephen Kishel’s sculptures explore form, balance, and movement through metal shaped by decades of delicate practice. Inspired by both natural and abstract influences, the works reflect a careful attention to material and space, where weight and lightness coexist.

Installed outdoors and in public settings, the sculptures engage with their surroundings, shifting in character with light, weather, and perspective. Those visiting our area are particularly drawn to the unique pieces.
