Hello, this item is an abstract mixed metal and stone sculpture titled Shifted Stance by the contemporary American artist Matthew Fine, created circa March 2000. The work is constructed from industrial metal elements combined with a textured stone or composite base, forming a vertical architectural composition with a recessed interior void and heavily worked surfaces. The sculptural language aligns with Matthew Fine’s known practice from the late 1990s and early 2000s, where he explored balance, negative space, and material tension through precision fabrication and hand finished textures. The presence of an artist plaque and the high level of craftsmanship visible in the joins, surface treatment, and structural integrity support this as an authentic work by the artist rather than a decorative imitation.

The sculpture appears to be in very good condition, with no visible structural damage, repairs, or losses, and only minor surface wear consistent with careful indoor display. Contemporary sculptures by Matthew Fine from this period, particularly mid sized freestanding works with mixed materials, typically sell on the secondary market between $2,500.00 and $4,500.00 USD, depending on scale, provenance, and exhibition history.
