    Description

    Foucault pendulum is a work made with a clock, tire and epoxy resin with pigment.
    The work is part of the "Timemachine" installation, consisting of 12 sculptures all made with old tires trussed on the street, worked, modified and sculpted. The velvety and opaque black color of the tires contrasts with the shiny and metallic black of the resins. The work analyzes the circularity of time as opposed to the circularity of the wheel of the car that turns endlessly. The work also emphasizes the circularity in the recycling and reuse of materials, which through the passage of time changes their form and function. No longer a car tire, but a sculpture depicting an abstract shape. The installation was exhibited in various exhibitions including at the "Cro Art Gallery" in Vienna in 2016, in collaboration with the Embassy of Italy in Austria, and published in the catalog of the publishing house "Il Mondo di Suk".

  • About this artist

    Concept

    For several years now I have been working with different media and artistic typologies, simultaneously carrying out different lines of research both in the pictorial field, where I work in thematic cycles, and in the field of plastic arts, ranging from subtractive sculpture with found stone material, to assemblies and installations. , often combining recycled materials and waste.
    In the pictorial cycles the themes are often of a historical-political character and of social denunciation, as in the ""work"" or ""face mask"" cycle with references to the First World War and the Spanish epidemic. The painting technique I use reflects the studies I made on 17th century European painting, both on materials and on operational methodologies.
    While in the sculptural works I operate in a less clear way, always dealing with issues of a socio-political nature but through the use of materials, their recovery and transformation. From waste to aesthetic object not for the simple Duschampian ready-made, but for the manual transformation of the object-waste that is transformed into an aesthetic object with manual and re-creative work as in ""Time machine"".
    I also like to tackle the site-specific, always stimulating for an artist who has to dialogue with a certain context without imposing his will and ego, with this in mind I worked with the methods of land art in works such as ""Golden fish"". Ultimately I try to make the most of my talent to be able to say and make people reflect on some socio-political and cultural issues."
