About this artwork
This sculpture explores a moment of transition where structure begins to give way to movement: a breaking point.
The body is constructed through intersecting slabs, forming a rigid, almost sterile system held in tension.
The head emerges as a crossing point—a portal in space. A redefinition of identity. A passage from rigidity toward flow.
This is not a gradual evolution.
It is a reconfiguration—an abrupt alignment, where something becomes real.

Mateo Aranda
Belgium
Mateo Aranda is a Mexican-Belgian artist based in Brussels. Trained in physics and photonics, he developed his artistic practice alongside a career in science and technology. He currently works primarily with hand-built stoneware.
His practice begins with fascination. He follows what creates a reaction in him — a form, a memory, an idea, a question, something beautiful, strange or amusing — and learns what he needs in order to pursue it. His scientific background provides tools for researching, experimenting and learning from results, while curiosity and pleasure determine the direction.
Through making, these interests acquire physical presence. He works with proportion, balance and detail, following a form while leaving room for the material to push back.
Once a form enters the world, it can connect, move, amuse, inspire or open a question.
Form generates field.
