Multiply.

Wood, latex, cotton, 40 x 30 x 5 cm (2024)

This sculpture explores the concepts of structure, replication, and materiality through the use of wood, latex, plastic and fabric. The wooden frame functions as both a boundary and a framework, containing and defining the forms within. While the latex, traditionally used for replicating forms, is employed here in a non-traditional manner. Rejecting the uniformity inherent in traditional mold-based casting, each form is manually created, resulting in unique, non-identical repetitions.

The frame houses six globes, their segmented arrangement and quantity evoking the anatomy of a mammalian's abdomen. This organic division gestures toward reproduction, expansion, and fertility, invoking biological processes while challenging the classical ideals of perfect replication in an artificial sense. 

Deviating from classical casting methods with a deliberate departure from uniformity the work emphasizes the tension between replication and variation, reinforcing the idea of multiplicity and growth.
