Transitional Shapes

Abstract

Sculpture is understood in three dimensions: height, width and depth. The nature of sculpture is not only visual, but also tactile and material. Its processes have changed over time, from materials and utensils to shapes and intentionality. The composition of matter is fragile, its constitution is susceptible, vulnerable to modification. The artist transforms; he begins by observing his surroundings and then fixes his attention on an entity from which he detaches his essence, he immediately re-interprets it from his own definition. A sculptural body is matter, Physics argues that matter is prone to undergo alterations in its composition, according to its characteristics of resistance. Wear is proof of the trail of life, of the process of things, of its path by time and space through erosion, rust, aging, detachment and tearing. The transformations of matter are subject to natural processes and principles of action-reaction.
