title
Zodiac Pt1
When I came up with my interpretation of the signs of the zodiac I decided to run away from the topics and look for an original but minimalist approach, so I decided on a classic approach, attaching a lot of importance to symmetry.
The bare figures (because of their curves and textures remind me of marble), incomplete (like those classic statues of Greece and Rome that have arrived incomplete to our days), the frontal poses symmetrical next to a single object to reinforce the minimalism.
I have chosen these works from my Zodiac collection because these are very special zodiac signs for me. They awaken old memories and allow me to recall important moments in my life that might otherwise fall into oblivion. Whenever I look at them, they invade feelings that fill me with emotion.
