TOUPIE ONE THOUSAND

"La Toupie" evokes a childhood nostalgia. Through this piece, the artist and the observer are reminded of the experience of childhood play, where the time boundaries and restrictions cease to matter and exist. You are absorbed in the instant, in the here-and-now, all else seems to lose importance.

Brimming of emotion and ambiguity, the sculpture offers the sight of mathematical time but invites the contemplation of much more: emotional time.

A time reference appears every five minutes: once you capture the instant of that minute, you are caught in it for a whole length of time and it becomes yours to experience, to get lost in.

Thus, minutes and hours lose their rational significance; seizing the instant is what truly matters. Solely the emotion inscribes itself as a point of reference, leaving an undeniable mark, whilst sculpting the instant across the mass of time.

TOUPIE FOUR HUNDRED

La Toupie Four Hundred is another expression of My "Instant", where emotional time has an even greater relevance.

A unique moment is encapsulated by La Toupie: it is about getting lost in and captured by an instant.

The instant is yours to choose, but not only that. This piece of art also offers the possibility to play with the ephemerality of time. In this sense, La Toupie gives the observer the incredible possibility to experiment the work of Art, to become part of it.

What truly matter is re-connecting to the childhood experience of the instant; where rational time gets forgotten, to then be found again and remembered, through the reading of a particularly significant time.

In parallel, it is also a wonderful reminder that, although the moment may have passed in terms of the mathematical time, it still exists in the inner emotional landscape and can be re-evoked, again and again, through its unique time reference.
