Genesis
The exhibition in hay, entitled Genesis, has two parts.
The main part is The Installation, with a self portrait.
It consists of a kinetic installation with a self portrait
that presents the forms moving around an axis, symbolizing
the dance of energies, the birth of substance. The clouds,
the earth - everything is moving, persuading a dialogue
with the entire universe. Substance arises from the
collision between the fundamental particles and the
energy produced by this collision. The self-portrait
is part of this circuit and plays its own role in the
cycle. The well and the water give life to it and purify
it.
The second part gathers three distinct works entitled:
Why do the bells ring?, Woman 1, and Woman 2. They
are based on the analogy with the organic forms in
nature and their details. Simultaneously the negative
forms interpolate the positive ones, allowing space
to enter through these gaps.
I have chosen the hay as the essential material of
my sculptures because of its similitude with our lives:
they are perishable and transitory; they pass away
and come back. I intend to underline the contingency
of our being and the universe’s one, by revealing
the contingency of the work of art.
In this exhibition I am looking for the resembling
of forms, the origin, the parts that make up the whole;
and the whole that reflects itself in the parts. Sculpture
represents for me the materialization of thoughts,
actions, of the REAL world and the SUPRA-REAL one.
It is a product that belongs to these two worlds,
where the beholder is invited to take part. The latter
will finally succeed to detach himself from the REAL
and the MATERIAL. Thus, he will get to know another
feeling that is not unknown, but only . . . forgotten.
