I take pictures of nudes, but I don't know if I should call them nudes. I should
use a more artistic term like landscapes - Andy Warhol
I began Spoglie Travertine Sculpture by reflecting on a photographic concept for
which, in short, by choosing to photograph an object, or a
part of it, or a context of relationship between forms, or decontextualizing it,
I have the power to deprive it of all its characteristics as an
object as such, and to give it others:
it is the object that looks at you - Baudrillard
"Spoils" is a work on allusions, on forms, on matter.
There are ideas, objects, sup erfices that refer to the organicity of the
skin and the fascination of bodies as well as the power of landscapes
rocky alternating with the seduction of sea waves.
The investigated surface is represented by parts and finds its
strength in a charismatic alternative between concave and convex, light
and shadow.
It is meant to be a reflection on the power of the image and the reaction -
allusion it provokes in the intimacy of the observer.
The sculpture is a Persian Travertine mixed onyx and stands on an iron base.
It is meant to be the first in a series.
Chantal Stropeni created this sculpture in Carrara, Italy.
