Suspension Study No. 3 is part of Jonas Merrill’s ongoing exploration of forms that appear to hover between solid and liquid states. Cast in fiberglass and coated with a high-gloss resin, the work is mounted directly to the wall, creating the illusion of a shape pushing outward from within the architecture itself. The smooth, undulating surface reflects ambient light in shifting highlights, emphasizing its fluid contours. The form invites both visual and tactile engagement, suggesting a hybrid between industrial design and organic growth. Merrill’s work often plays with the tension between permanence and movement, here capturing a moment of flow as if it had been suddenly stilled.

About the artist

Jonas Merrill

American

b. 1980

Jonas Merrill is a contemporary sculptor whose work explores the relationship between form, movement, and material transformation. Through fluid, minimalist shapes and carefully refined surfaces, he creates sculptures that appear suspended between solidity and motion. His practice is driven by an interest in how objects occupy space and how subtle shifts in form can evoke both natural and psychological associations. Working primarily in monochromatic palettes, Merrill creates contemplative works that invite viewers to slow down and reconsider the boundaries between the organic, the architectural, and the abstract. He lives and works in the United States.
