Description from the seller

Description of the work:

Interior Universes II — Transformation

Contemporary figurative sculpture in brass, entirely handmade.

Unique piece belonging to the series “Interior Universes,” a set of works in which the artist explores the inner world of the human being, the complexity of thought, and the processes of personal change and evolution.

The sculpture depicts a human figure seated on a spherical structure built from a network of metallic thread. Beside it appears a butterfly, a symbolic element traditionally associated with transformation, evolution, and change.

The sphere represents the figure’s inner universe: a space constructed from multiple lines, connections and tensions, as a metaphor for the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that shape our identity.

The butterfly introduces the concept of transformation and establishes a link between the inner world and the external world. The figure seems to be at a moment of transition, at that instant when something inside us begins to change.

The contrast between the human figure, the geometric structure of the sphere, and the organic form of the butterfly creates a composition that combines matter and void, balance and movement, structure and lightness.

The work is handcrafted in brass, sheet metal, and thread, using manual shaping, modeling, and assembly processes.

Each piece is built individually by the artist, without molds or casting processes, making it an original and unique work.

Biography:

Artist and jeweler specializing in creating unique pieces in metal, where material experimentation becomes a medium of artistic expression.

My work arises from the technical knowledge of the jewelry trade, which evolves toward exploring broader formats, allowing me to develop a distinct sculptural language. Through brass and work with thread and sheet metal, I create compositions that combine lightness, balance, and tension.

My work sits within contemporary sculpture, with a focus on human relationships, emotional bonds, and the invisible structures that connect people. The figures, with simplified forms, contrast with heads built from woven threads, symbolizing the complexity of thought and emotion.

Currently, I also experiment with organic shapes inspired by nature, expanding my language toward new expressive lines.

Each piece is made completely by hand, artisanally, paying attention to detail and giving rise to original, unique sculptures.
