About this artwork
The "bow" is a slender graceful sculpture of elm wood. In the center, the two streets of the sculpture interpenetrate without touching each other. It may also be reminiscent of a vibrating string. The musical reference is important to the sculptor. The expression of harmony and smoothness are also essential in this work. The wood is geoelt, so that the natural structure of the elm wood appears stronger. It is a work that is both mathematical, conceptual…
and poetic.
