Title of the project: "SPIRAL"

Concept: The sculpture "Spiral" connects the visitor with the flow of energy in two directions. Eternality towards the blue sky or deep inside our dreams. The sculptor is following the natural shape and movement of the stone, thus leaving the outer form of the stone unchanged. The vacuum, devoid of material becomes the focus point, and the age of the stone-several hundred millions of years become visible.

Material: Ayia Napa Natural Stone
Dimensions: H 250cm x W 100cm x D 60cm
Work period: 25/01/2016 - 13/02/2016

Title: “Uyuni” - Whirlwind
ArtistisLorena Olivares & TOBEL
Material: Greek marble
Dimensions: Ø 90 cm x 40 cm.

Concept: Place of concentration, the calm in the empty spiral center.
Uyuni is a lonesome city high up in the bolivian mountains (Altiplano).
The meaning of “Uyuni”in aymara language is “place of concentration”.
Our sculpture is a circle, at its center an empty spiral space opens, refers in part to the "place of concentration", at the same time refers to the calm that exists in the center of the hurricane around which everything is moving.
