About the work
Steel The ZigZags installation includes a series of gestural welded steel sculptures. The sculptures are glyph-like, inspired by West African symbolic writing systems. Zig-Zags occur in Malian chiwara, masks, and ideograms, signifying a road that is not straight but contains many twists, turns, and detours. The movement and lightness in these sculptures counterbalance the current heaviness and instability in the world
