Isolation stone: new method used




The stones above are made in the same technique as u may have previously known. But this time I used some powdered lead from some colored pencils (red and black) to create this effects. Putting the powdered lead whilst the paint is still fresh and wet with oil, makes the powder stick.

Thus creates a shadowy figure or image.

The name given to this stone is called isolation. I got the idea from the world war II, about colonisation of countries and places during the war. This map may show the dark ones portraying water, or burnt buildings and white ones are places that haven't been hit yet by the fire or war, and the red ones portraying death, blood, in those areas. And isolation of people during the war with many different reasons is one of the factor on how I felt making this stone.

The main location of which this stone or map came from does not exist as from the previous stones are done with real maps. This is due to just following the stones organic structure and the colour of the stone, which recreated this map type of image.

pietra serena di firenzuola,
made in a symposium in S.Piero a Sieve, Florence
The subject of the work is a tipical animal of the place, and he is restin'up of the stone like the conformation of the stone, that was created by the deposited of the seabed..
and I've imagine the conversation from a sea bed and the one under him..
The kind of stone is a sandstone, not so strong but eats so much the chisels

Stone Project: Zaha Hadids Music chamber, UK




New ideas for the stone project

Zaha hadid plan for some cultural centres in Manchester, UK. This structure is dedicated especially designed for Bach. And will be the venue for listening and appreciating his music. The structure is made of mesh like translucent fabric shaped like a cocoon and creating this white space membrane.
