nine rotating steel rings make up SpY\u2019s kinetic sculpture<\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

SpY<\/a><\/strong> presents \u2018Cycles,\u2019 a kinetic<\/a><\/strong> sculpture<\/a><\/strong> composed of nine steel<\/a><\/strong> rings that rotate on their axis at different speeds, creating a constantly changing visual ensemble. The rings, of different diameters, rest on top of each other in a delicate balance that suggests a stability as calculated as it is fragile. As they rotate, they change their appearance: what the eye perceives as a circle can become an ellipse, and vice versa, depending on the angle of view and the speed of rotation. Driven from its base by a mechanism that allows rotation in two directions, the installation<\/a><\/strong> unfolds a perpetual choreography: a continuous cycle that produces infinite patterns, in which the shapes collide visually and transform before the viewer\u2019s eyes. In this process, figures that seemed stable become ambiguous, generating illusions that affect the audience\u2019s perception.<\/p>\n

Cycles sculpture encourages reconsideration of time as form<\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The constant rotation confuses the spatial reading of the rings and blurs the notions of rotation and depth. In Cycles, SpY uses movement and time as sculptural materials. These not only alter the perceived form but also directly affect understanding, causing a state of perceptual dislocation. The loss of spatial references prevents a stable image of the sculpture from being fixed, producing a sense of visual disorientation. Continuing his research into kinetic systems and geometries in motion, the artist<\/a><\/strong> explores perception and time as artistic tools, actively involving the audience in the experience of his works. Cycles invites us to rethink the sculptural form not as a finished object, but as a consequence of movement. It is a proposal that sculpts time and turns the gaze into an active, physical, and mental act.<\/p>\n

Cycles by SpY is a kinetic sculpture made of nine rotating steel rings<\/p>\n
