The elements that make our metallic sculptures so unique are the material itself (inalterable stainless steel) and the way it surges through the space; the light as it vibrates across the undulating polished surface, the movement, the lightness and the shaping of the space. Each sculpture is designed to blend into the urban landscape where art is an organized scheme of electromagnetic and mechanical movements. These sculptures are always smooth, refined, polished, shining, and, in a certain sense, "cold" as the nature of metal is such that it never displays any romantic emotion. Despite this, it is animated by the constant iridescence of reflections and markings and colors of the concave and convex shaping of the mirrored surface as they expand and contract. Every sculpture has a definite plan: each shape is carefully measured and calibrated, each movement is calculated with a modular ratio according to the volumetric limits of the space; the physical action of the light is studied, sought and invented to inject life into the shape so that it is weightless and charged with energy as it pulsates with perception, imagination and a sense of the fantastic.
The prototypical nature of Sculptures requires thorough imaginative concepts, skilled engineering and well-researched developments. Our works bears the hallmark of our search for new monumentality, spectacular and interactive character. This phenomenon was commonly called urban furnishing, however it placed considerable restrictions on the meanings and the value of aesthetic symbols, that has become increasingly necessary to restoring one' sense of belonging to cities, districts, squares and architecture. These days our structures are considered to be enormous environmental sculptures, worthy of contemplation from a distance, yet alienating at the same time. |
