The ash—a residue that is both end and beginning—serves as an expressive base upon which the other elements are articulated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe metal, gears, and hand-forged iron nail introduce an industrial and artisanal memory that contrasts with the organic nature of the ash and charcoal. The nail, created using traditional forging techniques, bears the marks of handwork and fire. The gears, removed from their mechanical function, are reinterpreted as sculptural elements that bear the marks of time, wear, and obsolescence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dialogue between the natural, the industrial, and the artisanal articulates a reflection on cycles, transformation, and permanence. Each material retains its specific memory: the fire of the forge, mechanical movement, organic combustion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVertical format and sculptural presence\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vertical format (17 x 7.5 cm) creates a compositional tension that emphasizes verticality and the accumulation of layers.
