Where did I get my inspiration about this industrial art sculptures?
This artwork entitled Wave is part of a solo exhibition on the theme of the “circle”.
This show took place in a gallery in Athens on December 2008. The artist’s intention was to symbolize the concept of parallel worlds by creating two intersecting half-circles. Each circle has its own elements within. This geometrical parallelism is a metaphoric expression of what could be parallel worlds. This spire sculpture is aiming to convey the evolution of life.
