Ringway, 2015
Aluminium, steel and rubber
160 × 160 × 25 cm
There is always a different way to reach the goal
A boxed aluminum ring, resting on the ground as if it were a wheel.
At first glance it appears as a volume extruded from a circular crown, but looking at it frontally you will notice that the symmetrical proportion is betrayed by a design error in the organization of its dimensions.
The shape is oblique, the parallel circles defining it are shifted between each other, so the rotation of the ring follows a sinusoidal pattern with a rhythm of imbalances from one side to the other.
The form is in the movement.
The path of the wheel will not follow the most direct road, but a series of “routes” will lengthen the path because there is always a different way to reach the destination.
