5. Title: Underwater In this relatively edgy and strong design, it stresses innovation, craftsmanship and aggressiveness The bronze surface irregularly-shaped and stone-like sculptures emit a sense of edginess, symbolizing the sharp and fast senses needed to succeed, also conveying the stone into a coral reef
The consideration for the design of the modern existence related to the physical environment indicates the need for the relationship between sculpture and architecture.
We explored various factors which have influenced a separation of these two art forms, among which is a consideration of artistic impact to this roundabout area in the estate.
Sculpture-in-architecture is defined and the designer analyses the various practical and esthetic problems confronting sculptor and architect.
Functional and psychological modes of integration are discussed as generative factors for possible locations The determining factors for size and materials are considered The designer pointed to the need for sculptor and architect to work together from the inception of a project. We recognized the problems architects have in selecting a sculptor and makes several practical recommendations such as a reinforcement and structural work for the installation, i e the base of the water-feature where has to be supported the weight of the sculpture The overall artwork can be presented site-specific or stand in contrast to its surroundings
In this project, we performed the complete project management ranging from design, fabrication, fixing method and support building to the final installation in 2013 as one of our steppingstones!
