This wall art has a modern and industrial feel, combining the real rust of raw steel with the luster and elegance of copper leaf. Turquoise shades are achieved through oxidation of the copper through a special process. Moreover, the texture creates highlights and shadows which the copper leaf coating brings out, creating mesmerizing glimmers and poetic nuances.
Real rust is created and fixed with a special technique; the texture may be slightly different as it is not possible to accurately control the shades of rust that form on the painting. This gives charm to this work that will be one of a kind and unrepeatable.
Rust, with its shades ranging from fiery orange-red to deep brown and black, unfolds across the works like an intimate narrative of time. Its beauty lies in the uniqueness of the artistic process and in the metamorphosis that time itself imprints on the surface, transforming it continuously. What makes the use of rust and oxides so captivating is their unpredictability. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind creation, an unrepeatable pattern where colors develop organically, guided by the laws of nature that make the artwork alive and ever-changing over time.
Just as oxidized metal renews itself into unique and unrepeatable surfaces, so do experiences, layering over the course of life, shape who we are. It is within the vulnerability to change that a new beauty is revealed—a beauty born from evolution and transformation, uncovering the allure of an identity in constant flux. Rust thus becomes a symbol of rebirth, an art form that celebrates the passage of time and the ability to transform what life has marked into something extraordinary.
