Horizontal Development, 2019

Steel with a natural finish
95 × 80 × 255 cm
Here too - as in the works entitled Vertical Development - a sculpture has been created from a steel body by cutting and turning it, which changes direction several times and thus allows a strong movement to be experienced in its structure. Through the cracks on the surface of the knot, the clear persistence of even the glowing steel can be seen. It is hard to believe that only one piece of steel was processed, because the power and the change seem so incredible that even when walking around the sculpture and looking at the different views, the original body cannot be recognised.
