What are the clouds? Cities. / Rocca Calascio Sculpture

Anelo1997 is a workshop that designs and manufactures iron sculptures, installations, and architecture. Architectures of pure forms, ferrous structures like diagrams that represent the relationships between men and with space. Archetypal forms, memories that are structured, become fixed in lattices of cubes and lines and continue to project themselves around, in dialogue with the observer. The intertwining of forms tell of encounters, relationships, places and wills. Our stories need lines, welded points and meeting fences to be fixed in space, therefore in time, structuring themselves as a multiplication of shapes that follow one another and stop reproducing only when the meaning is grasped and fixed. Since childhood, we draw lines that run along and off the pages and which in the encounter with a thought, with the Other, close and create a space of relationship where something happens. It’s easy to imagine yourself walking those lines through time and your own memories, stopping in the perfect enclosures where even someone Else has found their meaning in our same time and in our same space. The forms of Anelo criticize and choose to reveal architecture, they follow the need to go back to the origin of things according to a reconstructive criticism. Anelo reaches the zero degree of architecture, modeling the forms in a highly reproductive possibility and maintaining their character of stability, but in a dynamic body. The forms of Anelo continue to move and project themselves around, they change as the point of view changes: stable forms in a flow of transformation.
