The Colour of Crazy

The Colour of Crazy

Installazione, Astratto informale, Materiale organico, 60x40x25cm
An unexpected encounter with a person outside your usual sphere can be intriguing, enlightening and thought provoking. It can awaken you to a forgotten part of yourself, introduce you to a different world or a new way of thinking.

When mental illness is encountered, for the most part, it happens unexpectedly in an uncontrolled manner which can be simultaneously frightening, funny, embarrassing or traumatic.

A spontaneous decision must be made – turn away, giggle nervously, become aggressive or engage in a gentle, respectful and compassionate manner.

This installation consists of eight sculptural pieces based on a chance encounter with a person suffering from a mental illness. With this work I was trying to capture the beauty and anguish of a mind that travels down a different path to my own.

Piace a 11

Hi Elisa previously I couldn't get the translation for the text in English. Wow, now I am really appreciating its empathy. The dichotomy of the solid form juxtaposed against the net-like outline of the form is beautifully conceived.

If the wire forms are trying to be as great, clever and beautiful as the rocks they've got to try a lot harder!!
Love it!!

Hi Elisa,
I've just voted your installation, but i'm afraid I haven't understand quite nothing about your work.
I like the correspondance between the objects upon the plan and the objects under the plan.
Above there is the mass, and under there are the skeletons?
