Totem- Fondazione OIC, Padua
Three sculptures were installed at the“Opera Immacolata Concezione” Senior Centre in Padua. The three “Totem” represent an archetype, an image that has something tribal and ancestral, a point of convergence of timeless energies. Geometric shapes such as circle, a symbol of heaven, and the square, symbol of earth, reinforce this idea of universal harmony. These figures, carved or embossed, alternate and chase each other along the longitudinal course of the sculptures, highlighting the upward motion. The “Totem” are sculptures full of spirituality, so that the color red emphasizes their force, turning it into an aesthetic input for those who live the centre everyday.
