Susana Solano
\nThis piece is a clear example of the sensuality and poetic subtlety that characterise the works of Susana Solano. The iron, which takes on the quality of clay in a process that is almost like modelling\u2014one that leaves neither the rivets nor the welds concealed\u2014has been worked using rudimentary industrial forging techniques, evoking the irregularities and imperfections of craftsmanship, the human touch. With tactile surfaces and voluptuous volume, this image of nature is suspended in an abstract space, asserting its presence by taking the form of a staircase\u2014a symbol of transit, of the flow of water, or perhaps of the contingent. The metaphor transcends the piece\u2019s objectual nature and expands its image beyond its formal limits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
