For our 11th year at Art Miami, Markowicz Fine Art brings two distinctive sculptural voices into focus: KAI and Carole A. Feuerman.

Discover the tabletop edition of KAI’s Perfect Hug, whose monumental counterpart is now permanently installed in Austin, and the first presentation of Feuerman’s The Diver (Museum-Scale) in a new gold-toned finish combining matte and highly polished bronze. From the closeness of an embrace to the precision of an athlete’s balance, these works explore how a single gesture can hold our attention.

KAI

Perfect Hug: an embrace across scales

KAI, Perfect Hug, tabletop edition: two bronze Imaginary Friends embracing, a red heart on a curling stainless steel ribbon beside them — KAI, *Perfect Hug*, tabletop edition. Bronze, carbon fiber and stainless steel, 17¾ × 11 × 9⅞ in (45 × 28 × 25 cm). Presented at Art Miami 2026.

Two of KAI’s Imaginary Friends hold each other in a close embrace. One turns inward; the other looks out toward the viewer, while a ribbon carrying a red heart curls through the air. In Perfect Hug, affection becomes a gesture we recognize before we need to explain it.

Monumental Perfect Hug sculpture by KAI at the entrance to COTALAND, Circuit of the Americas, Austin, Texas — The monumental version: KAI, *Perfect Hug*, 15 feet (4.57 m), permanently installed at the entrance to COTALAND, Circuit of the Americas, Austin, Texas. See the installation

A 15-foot monumental version of the sculpture now welcomes visitors at the entrance to COTALAND at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. Acquired for the venue’s permanent collection, it gives this intimate moment a public presence, greeting visitors as they arrive and accompanying them as they leave.

At Art Miami, Markowicz Fine Art presents the tabletop edition. Standing 45 cm high, it invites a closer encounter with the figures, the space between them, and the heart suspended beyond their embrace.

CAROLE A. FEUERMAN

The Diver: a first presentation in a new finish

Markowicz Fine Art presents The Diver (Museum-Scale) for the first time in its new gold-toned finish, bringing together the soft surface of matte bronze and the reflections of highly polished bronze.

The athlete balances on his hands, his body extended in a controlled curve. The tension in his arms, the articulation of his muscles, and the spread of his fingers reveal the effort behind the apparent stillness.

The matte body absorbs light, while the polished swim cap and briefs reflect the surrounding space. As visitors move around the sculpture, these changing reflections animate a figure held in perfect concentration.

Created in 2026 and measuring 100 inches in height before its pedestal, this version gives renewed presence to Feuerman’s exploration of strength, discipline, and balance.
