In Paradisum · 2018

Having Baroque Music as a starting point, each piece is the result of repeating and combining the same type of colored element. These folded elements are organized, like in origami, to create organic forms in which the geometry of the compositions is hidden when copper or titanium is forged.

The organic aspect of the pieces is also reinforced by the marks left by the hammer, by the mobility of the non-welded elements that compose them and finally by the color of the metal. In copper, the color is the result of the natural oxidation during the process of metal manipulation, while in titanium the pieces are anodized once its construction is completed.
