🜁 DESCRIPTION
This sculpture does not simply represent a rooster.
It is a form of tension.
Made in plasma-cut iron and oxidized, the work bears on its surface the marks of time and transformation. The oxidation, achieved with hydrogen peroxide and fixed with wax, is not decoration but process: a material that evolves and is halted in its passage.
The rooster, symbol of energy and momentum, here confronts its limit.
The wings suggest flight, but the structure restrains it.
The weight at the base becomes metaphor: the human condition suspended between possibility and incapacity to act.
The work fits into the language of Transavanguardia, where gesture and symbol return to dialogue with matter, but in a contemporary and conceptual key.
It is not a decorative object.
It is a fragment of existential tension made into form.
