UROBORO is an installation in which art meets circular economy.
The work, created for Electrolux , is inspired by the famous mythological figure of the Ouroboros, a snake that regenerates itself by biting its tail. This continuous cycle represents the universal energy that is constantly being consumed and renewed.
The installation, 5 m. in height and 7 m. in diameter, was made with waste materials from the production of washing machines from the Electrolux site in Porcia (Pordenone): as many as 960 steel scraps obtained from the processing of baskets and assembled thanks to a team effort that saw the direct involvement of some of the multinational company's employees.
The result is an art installation that can be completely disassembled and reassembled and will be able to live other lives elsewhere to tell us who knows what other stories.
