Work nº079 :
Drop it like it’s hot (Transmutation)

For our first collaboration with MiniMasterpiece Gallery, specialized in contemporary artists jewels, we created a new set of works in silver and golden silver, entitled Work nº079: Drop it like it's hot (Transmutation).
In the continuation of our project "Bird's Thoughts", initiated in 2011 and questioning the organization systems of companies and the value of art, this work is inspired in a playful way from the definition of alchemy (from ancient Greek khêmeia, meaning "the art of melting and combining metals").
In a simple gesture, leitmotiv of our practice, a drop of molten metal is dropped from a certain height. By hitting the ground, it disperses and freezes in a radiant impact, aesthetic and conceptual at the same time, reaching the desired goal of alchemists, transmutation of metals.
