Calamatie’s Path
We influence everything around us, and everything around us influences us.
In a positive or negative manner, we are all the results of billions of micro events,
chain reactions over which we don't always have control, or very little control.
At certain moments, there are catastrophic events during these chain reactions,
and sometimes there are incredible moments. However, we are rarely witnesses
to these exclusive events
Electric Models
I have tried exploring the world of electronics in a new dimension,
and by that, I mean literally.
Through my years of building simple circuits for testing or simply reminding
myself of the basics on little breadboards, I came upon the idea of rebuilding
them into miniature three-dimensional sculptures, completely sustained by
the connection of wires between the different components. Thus, I created
these various electronic models, blinking their eyes.
This project is ongoing.
Revolving Berries
The infinite loop, repetiton, and being stuck in routines are common
patterns among all living beings.
This notion extends beyond our individuality, manifesting systematically
in biological, ecological, social, political, and many other structures.
Inspired by the works of Giovanni and the Studio Immagineria,
I created three light sculptures representing the evolution of a strawberry.
Echos of a vicious cycle
The sculpture, a poetic fusion of plexiglass and light, mirrors life's rhythmic
repetition, echoing the tangled loops that surround us.
At its core, a syringe gracefully extends and retreats, evoking addiction's grasp.
It extracts the essence of an e-cigarette, a fleeting mist that dances through the
plexiglass. Opacity sensors reveal its presence, illuminating the clear surface,
while a fan orchestrates a mesmerizing motion.
MUD
These two sculptures represent the feeling of being stuck in a loop, continuously
taking the same paths and roads to the same destination without feeling like
you have gotten any further in your life as an individual. The impression of dragging
yourself through the mud all the time without arriving at where you want to be.
