However, within this space of familiar sculptural traditions, Bove has discovered new approaches that lead to places previously unknown. Bove's \"collage sculptures\" are created from scrap metal and stainless steel that has been carefully worked into sinuous forms and are frequently painted. Considering the hard rigidity of the steel, the works possess an appearance of almost impossible softness, as if steel could become as pliable as clay. Such works range from small pedestal sculptures to large, imposing compositions.
