About this artwork
The Root sculpture series is based on the process of studying tree roots and recoding them into an abstract language that oscillates between the geometric and the organic. Although it may seem like a contradiction, the shapes with marked edges and geometric predominance are developed through curved forms. This play of contradictions allows the work to have its own language, taking the natural object it represents to another level.
The pieces are… made of welded and oxidized carbon steel, which helps to increase the organic appearance of the work.

« The investigation of space and form, close to primitive and essential art, is my engine of exploration and work. The attempt to achieve a pure form that reaches the subconscious of the viewer because it is capable of summarizing something universal. »
Roberto Canduela is an experienced Spanish sculptor with extensive national exhibition experience. Spring-boarding from the idea that our bodies limit and delimit us-both physically and mentally-he composes works with anthropomorphic references and a high degree of abstraction. He additionally experiments with architectural forms that generate fascinating spaces and gaps, and constantly dances between heavy and the light.
