AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Intro José Soler:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xmToe0GrYo
Playful Thinking is the visual manifestation of a mind that indulges in free play with form and color. From a state of serenity, joy, and creative freedom, these geometric melodies emerge that seem to dance with a life of their own.
Each element—circle, line, triangle, curve—emerges and fades away as if responding to an inner, intimate, and changing rhythm. They are forms that do not impose themselves but flow; they are not explained but felt. Like a mental dance, the compositions are organized into visual harmonies that evoke the fleeting moment when intuition becomes visual language.
This work does not represent a concrete idea, but an attitude towards the creative process: carefree, free, profoundly human. It is a tribute to non-linear thinking, to creation as play, to the beauty that is revealed when the mind is silenced and the soul begins to speak.

José Soler is a sculptor based in Spain whose works have been exhibited nationally, as well as in Monaco, Italy and France. Through each of his pieces, he strives to bring out the melody that lives within each of us. Soler cites the conversion of cold steel into sculpture as his way of connecting with what is invisible to our eyes and what can only be perceived with universal feelings.
