Sin título

1978

This monumental stainless steel sculpture consists of hundreds of vertical rods arranged in a dense cylindrical form. The linear elements rise upward with varying heights, creating a rhythmic pattern that suggests both order and organic growth. Horizontal structural supports intersect the vertical lines at several points, establishing a dynamic tension between geometric precision and expressive gesture. The work's transparency allows viewers to perceive the complex layering of elements from multiple vantage points, generating an optical effect that shifts with perspective.
