ORBITE stands out for its ability to translate an abstract and universal concept, orbital movement, into an intense and controlled material composition.
The metal plates, precisely overlapped, create a real depth that interacts with the visual. The incisions trace curvilinear lines, sometimes barely visible, sometimes more decisive, evoking trajectories, cyclical paths, and continuous rotations. The metal, worked and marked, loses its industrial coldness to become an expressive, living surface, almost sensitive to the passage of time and light.
The variations in finish contribute to an internal rhythm within the work: the surfaces capture and reflect light differently, suggesting a movement that is not physical but perceptual.
The title ORBITE guides the conceptual reading of the work. The engravings can be interpreted as cosmic orbits, but also as human journeys, emotional cycles, relationships that converge and recede without ever losing their center of gravity. The absence of an explicit narrative leaves space for the observer, who becomes an active participant in reconstructing the meaning of the work, following the engraved trajectories with their gaze and perceiving the tension between order and chaos.
ORBITE conveys a sense of dynamic balance. Nothing is static, despite the solidity of the metal. The work conveys silence, concentration, but also restrained energy, as if each element were waiting to complete its rotation. The overlapping and engraved plates become a means to reflect on time, movement, and the invisible relationships that govern both the universe and the human experience. An elegant, intense, and deeply meditative work.
