About Rame Puro Metallic Sculptures
Rame Puro is a series of metallic sculptures. Made from whole pieces of copper, aluminum, and iron. The center of each sculpture is polished to a shine while the edges are untouched and retain their industrial character. These objects are perceived as interior accessories in terms of the utilitarian aspect and as sculptures within their calm states. The main challenge was the desire to conform to natural forms. The sculptures needed to look like natural formations, rather than handmade objects. In search of the desired thickness and relief, many iterations were performed.
