D.B - Sculpture The Provocation of Order No reserve

D.B - Sculpture The Provocation of Order No reserve

This sculpture reflects on the constant tension between order and provocation that defines the human experience. The geometric forms, seemingly stable, are challenged by an inner movement that suggests change and uncertainty. Color here is not decorative; it is a provocation. It disrupts the cold logic of industrial metal, introducing an emotional dimension that contradicts the rigidity of the form. It is an act of rebellion within a system that seeks control. The work invites the viewer to question whether the balance surrounding us is truly real, or simply a continuous response to the provocations of the environment. This unique sculpture continues the evolution of previous works while possessing its own distinct identity. The composition has been enriched with additional elements and a new structural arrangement that creates a different sense of movement, balance, and dynamism. Compared to earlier pieces, it presents variations in scale and in the arrangement of its components, subtly transforming its overall structure. Each piece is one of a kind and reflects an evolution within the same creative line. This sculpture marks a new direction in my artistic practice, where brutalist aesthetics meet the expressive energy of Pop Art. Although the work remains rooted in the honesty of materials and the strength of Brutalism, it introduces a new layer of contemporary visual language: bold, provocative, and emotionally charged. Color is not an addition, but a statement — a transition from the silent to the expressive. This piece reflects an evolution in my work, moving from monochromatic industrial sculptures toward a more dynamic and emotionally direct artistic vocabulary, where form remains strict while meaning becomes more playful, human, and immediate. Dimensions: 50 × 16 × 16 cm Material: Iron Finish: Green color Artist Information Education: Self-taught artist. Exhibitions: I develop my artistic practice independently. Awards: I have not received official awards. Residencies: I have not participated in artistic residencies. My work focuses on the creation of unique pieces situated between sculpture and functional object, with an emphasis on materiality, structure, and durability. I create sculptural furniture in concrete and iron, combining function with sculptural form, strongly influenced by Brutalism. My practice explores geometry, structure, and materiality, creating works that investigate balance, repetition, and visual presence within space.
