AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The work is articulated as an exploration of emotion transformed into matter. Through a formal language of curves and edges, it posits a dialogue between tension and balance, complexity and synthesis. Its presence activates the space, generating an atmosphere where energy and perception intertwine. More than an object, it presents itself as an experience: an invitation to inhabit intensity and to reconsider the relationship between form, body, and emotion.

Fern is the pseudonym under which the sculptor Clavo and the sculptor Carmen Lop converge into a single creative language, a shared territory where their gazes dialogue and fuse.

Their work is built from the primal force of metal, mainly working with iron and steel, materials that are transformed through forging and welding into forms charged with tension, balance, and meaning.

Between the figurative and the abstract, with echoes of pop art, their sculptures traverse an expressive open space, where matter becomes gesture and volume becomes narrative.

Technique and craft occupy an essential place in their process: each piece arises from respect for artisanal work, understood as an act of precision, time, and commitment to form.

They have participated in numerous exhibitions, both group and solo, consolidating a career mainly within the national arena.

Individually, they have been recognized with various awards, among which the “Premio de Escultura Urbana Ciudad de Ávila” (2006) and the “Memorial to the Victims of Machista Violence” in Zaragoza (2016) stand out.

Their creative universe dialogues with the work of great Spanish sculptors such as Martín Chirino, Jorge Oteiza, Eduardo Chillida, or Julio González, whose influences resonate in their investigation of space, matter, and form.

Sculpture made from 4mm thick steel sheets, curved in a spiral.
