Satellite I Stone
Satellite I Stone
The satellite project arises from the idea of the stone as a symbol of sacredness.
The relationship between stones and the sacred has been consistent since man habit the earth. This is how Litholatry or the worship of stones comes about. Their positioning in a chosen place grants them sacralization, transforming the space into a place of worship where the union between the heavenly and earthly worlds. (Omphalos)
Satellite is inspired by “betilos” and dolmen. Together with Jupiter, they form a spatial configuration that sends us to the megalithic monuments of ancient times. The spheres and the columns are made of the stone cast: from applying an organic reaction to alpha calcium the process of material curing is irregular and unpredictable. After cleaning and sanding, the resulting pieces are always unique and different from each other.
The Satellite installation is arranged in different constellations, and the subtle movement of lights and reflections on the shapes take us to a contemplative universe.
