Crystals

Crystals is a multi-element, mirror-polished 316L stainless-steel sculpture rising to 3 m. Faceted, prismatic shafts catch the environment like cut stone, throwing sharp, liquid reflections that shift as you move.

Artist Statement

With Crystals I translated the language of geology into reflective metal. Each upright is forged and planished into a tapering prism—edges tighten, planes tilt, and the Mercury Effect skin turns sky and landscape into facets of light. Installed as a small “field,” the pieces read as a growing crystal cluster: independent forms that interlock visually, creating tension between raw vertical energy and mirror-smooth surfaces. The work is meant to be walked around; the composition changes with every step, revealing new alignments and flashes.

1/1 Modern Exhibition

Site outdoors or in a large atrium with a 4–6 m viewing envelope. Arrange 3–7 prisms with varied heights and rotations to build a natural cluster. Light with grazing side light at dusk or from low, narrow beams to pull long highlights along the edges; avoid flat frontal flood which collapses the facets. Maintain clear ground finishes (stone, gravel, lawn) so the reflections remain legible.
