80x50x20
Tronco de Hera (Hedera helix) e EPS
 

A via da simplicidade

A simplicidade e o equilíbrio sobressaem, num contexto em que a estrutura escultórica se desenvolve numa conjugação de elementos naturais (troncos de hera) com sintéticos (esferas de poliestireno expandido). O contraste dos materiais confere uma certa ambiguidade à obra, combinando a rudeza da hera, proveniente da natureza, com a quase perfeição das esferas produzidas pelo homem.

A hera representa um percurso vital, com infexões, mudanças de direcção  e a busca incessante de novos caminhos.

Três esferas interligando os seus dois ramos, completam a estrutura escultórica.

A primeira esfera, mais orgânica, representa a necessidade que o ser humano tem de se libertar das suas tensões físicas.

A segunda esfera, mais intelectiva e meditativa, representa a necessidade que o ser humano tem de procurar o seu equilíbrio mental na tentativa de atingir serenidade e quietude interior.

A terceira esfera traduz o equilíbrio atingido que será consubstanciado na capacidade de relacionamento.

 

 

The path of simplicity
The simplicity and equilibrium stand, in a context where the sculptural structure develops on a combination of natural elements (trunks Ivy) with synthetic (polystyrene spheres). The contrast of materials adds a certain ambiguity to the work, combining the roughness of ivy from nature, with the near perfection of the spheres produced by man.
Ivy is a vital route, with inflections, changes of direction and a continuous search for new paths.
Three spheres linking its two branches, complete the sculptural structure.
The first sphere, more organic, is the need that humans have to break free of their physical tensions.
The second sphere, more intellectual and meditative, is the need that humans have to seek your sanity in an attempt to achieve serenity and inner quiet.
The third sphere reflects the balance that is struck embodied in relationship skills.
