About Gradual Change of the Circle Kip

Postopna sprememba kroga je kip, navdihnjen z evolucijo življenja na Zemlji. Delo je izdelano predvsem iz nerjavečega jekla, titanova prevleka pa mu daje zlate in srebrne tone s tehnološkim videzom. Zaobljena oblika spominja na materin obraz, hkrati pa namiguje na semena, popke in školjke. Linije vzdolž zunanjega loka spominjajo na valove na plaži. Notranja konkavna površina odseva pogled na nebo. Oblika je bila najprej oblikovana z računalnikom, nato pa dokončana ročno. Predprodukcijski modeli so bili natisnjeni s 3D tiskalnikom iz reciklirnih materialov, da bi zmanjšali količino odpadkov.

Design Challenge: The pre production of the artwork was constructed using reusable earth as the material, and the model was printed out with corn-friendly materials through the technology of 3D printing by scanning. By means of an environmentally friendly production process and the use of recyclable materials, the project reduces waste of resources and pollution, thus realizing an earth friendly environment.
Research: The overall appearance of the work resembles a nautilus or a seashell and the image of Tai Chi. The physical transformation following the mental condition produces different forms or symbols from one person to another.

Inspiration: The earth's biosphere: genes, individuals, groups, species, communities, and landscapes have evolved over thousands of years. This artwork is an abstract conceptual approach to the appearance of seeds, buds, shells, mothers, and other imagery, creating an imaginative installation.
Project Duration: The market launch was in 2019.
Operation Flow: All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full. This passage is a motto of King Solomon in the Old Testament, and it is embodied in part of this work, reflecting the view of the sky through the inner concave curved surface.
