Regarding Rame Puro Metallic Sculptures

Rame Puro is a series of metallic sculptures. Made from whole pieces of copper, aluminum, and iron. The center of each sculpture is polished to a shine while the edges are untouched and retain their industrial character. These objects are perceived as interior accessories in terms of the utilitarian aspect and as sculptures within their calm states. The main challenge was the desire to conform to natural forms. The sculptures needed to look like natural formations, rather than handmade objects. In search of the desired thickness and relief, many iterations were performed.

Design Details

Unique Properties: Rame Puro is a series of metallic sculptures. The sculptures are made of copper, aluminum, and iron flat bars with a hand-polished finish. Each object possesses a unique shape that is the result of improvisation. These objects are perceived as interior accessories in terms of the utilitarian aspect and as sculptures within their calm states.
Inspiration: The concept of this design is inspired by the beauty of pure metal and its structure. The center of each sculpture is polished to a shine while the edges are untouched and retain their original industrial character. This visual contrast arouses curiosity and a desire to hold the metal in hand. Thus, you can use "Rame Puro" as a coaster for a drink, but your sincere passion for a heavy bar of copper will also be sufficient.
Research: A research was made to find out which metals make it possible to achieve greater visual contrast between polished and rough parts.
Challenge: The main challenge was the desire to conform to natural forms. The sculptures needed to look like natural formations, rather than handmade objects. In search of the desired thickness and relief, many iterations were performed.
Realization and Technology: Made from whole pieces of copper, aluminum, and iron. Each sculpture has been created and polished individually, there are no two identical designs.
Operation and Interaction: These sculptures are intended to be displayed statically, but the user can use them as a coaster for a drink.
Project Duration and Location: The project started in September 2019 and finished in December 2019 in Vladikavkaz (Russia), and was published in January 2020.
Specifications: Size (mm): L275 x W87 x H8; Weight (kg): Copper 1,82; Aluminium 0,44; Iron 1,26.
Keywords: metal, sculpture, copper, aluminuim, iron, handmade
