Technique: Lecce stone and iron
Description: Two halves that complement each other, celebrating the beauty of diversity. The artwork represents the union of two individuals, whether it be friendship or otherwise, capturing the moment when people meet and get to know each other. This connection occurs through the exchange of glances, the depth of which reveals sincerity and a variety of emotions. The artwork takes shape from two parts that, when combined, form an eye. However, perfection is not achieved, as the two halves, when brought together, do not touch at multiple points. This detail emphasizes that the eye appears complete only at a precise distance, symbolizing the need for compromise in human relationships. The uniqueness of the two halves extends to the choice of textures in the Lecce stone; the iris on the right is smooth with a textured eyelash line, while on the left, the iris is textured, and the eyelash line is smooth. This duality reflects the essence of relationships, where one must find a bit of the other in oneself and vice versa for a harmonious connection. Ultimately, the artwork becomes a tangible symbol of the complexity and richness present in human relationships, inviting observers to reflect on the beauty that arises from diversity and the importance of finding balance to nurture connections between people.
