He graduated with Distinction from the Alberta College of Art \u0026amp; Design in 2005, majoring in Sculpture. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and includes residencies and public art commissions. Broens’ practice centers on the exploration of form. He works through a process of observation, drawing, and refinement, developing shapes that evolve into a cohesive body of work. At the core of his approach is a belief that objects possess an inherent essence—one that can be revealed through careful attention and restraint. His sculptures are guided by an internal logic, allowing forms to exist with a sense of autonomy while remaining open to interpretation. Characterized by a quiet and contemplative presence, Broens’ work invites a slower mode of engagement. His forms often operate within a space of calm and subtle tension, encouraging viewers to consider their relationship to objects and to one another. Through simplicity and clarity, he creates conditions for reflection—where meaning is not imposed, but discovered. His practice seeks to cultivate moments of stillness and connection, offering a shared space for observation, introspection, and varied interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Evan Broens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47348243955861,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0454\/1956\/1109\/files\/IMG_1251.jpg?v=1778600768","url":"https:\/\/thethisgallery.com\/products\/forms-for-my-child-1","provider":"THIS GALLERY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
