1 Object. Balls. 2

Updated: Dec 9, 2020

Another thought about the boundaries between sculpture and painting was this art piece. As I wrote earlier, this plaster sculpture seems to have lost something.



Therefore, it seemed logical to me to continue the shape of the ball.



In my previous work, I liked the idea of a ball in space, but there it was tied to a canvas. It was rather an experiment - to place the glowing circles on different planes and see if they will be aligned.



What keeps different items together? What is a group of items?


The first thing that is striking is the bright spots that look like balls. It is not a circle, but rather a ball as it appears to be three-dimensional. Part of this feeling is due to the chiaroscuro pattern and ultraviolet light. When I separated the items, they still visually linked to one idea.


I used a plastic bag because the plaster contains this mould. A white ball made of light plasticine seems to be one of the parts of a plaster sculpture. He just fell out of the structure and took an independent position. The drawn circle on a small canvas is a kind of copy of a red semicircle in plaster form.



Interestingly, there are five different representations of the same circle. A convex out the shape on a flying ball; an inward concave shape in a sculptural piece; a flat shape on the canvas; a flat shape of the shadow from the ball, and an arbitrary irregular shape on a package. All of them create an illusion, and not one is not the truth of what it claims to be.


One white ball is the form that everyone is trying to be like in this work.



After all, a group of objects is defined by a general context, or colour, or shape. Items placed on the shelf begin to communicate with the environment and other meanings appear. When the presented composition stands alone, the vision analyzes only the situation inside the presented objects.



For the experiment, I added one digital circle. This additional element indicates the awareness that you are looking at a picture on a computer screen. This is the same parody of the original.


Sculpture size 22cm. Height x 23cm. Width x 8cm. Depth
