Instalation project developped in my residence @ Flora Ars+Natura with the Grant 35-55.
It consists of one or many columns of sugar crystals grown in a thread of ¨fique¨ natural fiber.
Working with materials of high symbolic content is part of my training as a jeweler and I have always looked for associations of unexpected materials in the context of contemporary art. Sweetness connects us symbolically as a brittle and fragile material, in this installation my interest was to create what would look like an architectural element absurdly made of sugar.
