About Cassiopeia Eskultura

Cassiopeia birziklatutako eta industria-hondakinezko beira erabiliz egindako beirazko eskultura bat da. Bestela zabortegian amaituko lukeen materiala urtu eta forma berri batera moldatzen da. Pieza bakoitza ahoz putz eginda egindako estudioko beira da, eskuz moldatua. Azalera latz eta organikoek estetika eskandinaviarra eta argia islatzen dituzte. Beirazko kupula bakoitza pixka bat argiztatuta dago, eta izotza dirudien azalek elkarrekin urtzen dute paisaia bat dirudien instalazio batean. Eskulturak 150 x 50 x 30 zentimetro ditu. Asmoa birziklatutako materialaren eta material baliotsuaren arteko kontrastearen interpretazio poetiko bat egitea da.

How it allows to see to the deepness of the Universe though the lenses of telescope and into the smallest details of life in the microscopic world.
