ARCHITECTURE OF THE UNCONSCIOUS

230 x 130 x 200 cm

Aluminium inside a stainless steel frame )

With this work I wanted to explore my subjective unconscious logic of creation.

The concept was to start modeling beeswax without a vision of the finished piece. The process of building this sculpture lasted five months.

Modeling beeswax is a long process, so after a while it becomes very meditative, it is possible to detach from the mind- thinking, and that is when the uncounscious part starts to appear.

The sculpture was built from the inside-out. I started by shaping the inside space of the sculpture, the architecture , which then defined the outside form. The sculpture was cast in aluminium.

It is placed inside a steel frame, hung on fishing wires. The frame represents the frame of mind.
