Untitled 2002

Curator: This imposing sculpture, currently untitled, is the work of Enrico David. Editor: It strikes me as both precarious and serene. The wood grain gives it a tactile warmth, yet the figure is so angular and segmented. Curator: David often uses humble materials to explore complex ideas. The plywood here references both craft traditions and the modular forms of modernism. There's a tension between the handmade and the mass-produced. Editor: Absolutely, and the repetition of lines creates a compelling visual rhythm. It's as if the figure is caught in a perpetual state of becoming. Curator: Exactly. This piece is less about representing a fixed identity and more about investigating the processes of construction and deconstruction. Editor: A very interesting and thought-provoking approach. Curator: Indeed, it makes one consider the labor, and the human element, that goes into producing what we see before us.
