- Exploration of Matter and Non-Matter: Explored themes of void, space, and perception in his work. Sculptures often create a sense of receding into the distance or distorting surrounding space.
- Use of Reflective Surfaces (1990s onwards): Began working with polished stainless steel to create mirror-like surfaces that reflect and distort the viewer and surroundings.
- Recurring Themes: Kapoor's work frequently explores dualities such as earth-sky, matter-spirit, visible-invisible, and conscious-unconscious. He often investigates concepts of containment, infinity, and the relationship between the individual and the surrounding environment.
