The medium is enameled plaster stone suspended on burlap. This is number 2 of 3 which relate to the phases of the moon. The 25K gold line insinuates the void (crescent) area. The viewers will be so attracted to touch the work and connect with it immediately after seeing it for the first time in person. Since the work is three dimensional and extends about 1-4 inches from its surface,connecting with one protrusion or a hundred of them makes you part of an "extension of you." Intriguing texture emerge defining light, shadows and space.Your first reaction is "what is this? Fabric, carpet, nails, etc." My inspiration comes from the reflection of gold, silver and copper. Being inspired in a pre-Columbian gold culture, the cultural significance and its material properties, my goal is to continue the vein of ancient traditions extrapolating the essence of these elements while connecting and respecting our ancestors.

Born in Cali, Colombia, Eduardo Terranova studied architecture and design at Rhode Island School of Design. His works are known for his reflective and rich-surface visuals. Terranova’s evolving techniques incorporate plaster, burlap, hand stitching, and precious metals that transform two-dimensional surfaces into sculptural works that flawlessly integrate art, design and craft. Architecture, entropy, landscape and socio-dichotomies are “built” together in his works as light, shadows and an infinity of scintillations emerge to become then, the subject matter of the new relief-like works. The use of gold, inspired by the pre-Columbian artworks gives Terranova the impetus to create, in the belief that the glitter of metals is more than mere reflections, more than optically perceived phenomena. Terranova’s work has been exhibited in many galleries in the United States, Europe and Latin America. He lives and works in New York City.
