Cyclops

Part of the sculptural group “The Seven Cyclops”, Cyclops Spring-8 is imagined as a connector of mythology, science and spirituality. The gigantism of the head alludes to the legendary world of ancient Greece, the adhesive reflector, each time different, it’s represent, in the case of Spring-8, the logo of the Super Photon Ring - 8 GeV experiment, located in the prefecture Hyōgo Japan. The tennis ball suspended in magnetic pull at the third eye altitude refers to the Hindu practice of the Tilak. A crossroads of references focused on the tension towards the invisible concreteness of physical events in a hyper contemporary reality that appears augmented by new technologies and the latest scientific discoveries.
