Inspired by Brancusi’s piece “The Kiss” 1908, this work combines in a new way geometric shapes with the allegorical quality of the human body. The piece may be appreciated in two possible positions (open and closed). The piece evokes the relationship or contradiction between love and sexuality. When the piece is closed, it creates the perfect geometric shape (a cube). As in Brancusi’s work it represents love as a monolithic element conformed by the union of the couple. But when the piece is open, a sexual allusion breaks the minimalist perfection of the sculpture, revealing the intimate space within.
