OBJECT OF THE MONTH - SUMMER - 2024
‘ARCHAE 410 YELLOW-GOLD’
By LAs ÁNIMAS, spain
GET IN THE MOOD OF THE GOLDEN DREAM OF SPRING
ARCHAE is a celestial collection of enlightened pendant sculptures designed and hand-made by the Spanish creative duo LAS ÁNIMAS. Crafted of epoxy resin, the light shines through volumes and textures, casting shadows and gradients that evoke dreamlike scenes. The piece reminds us of suspended crystal rocks or glistening ice-cubes, captivating viewers with their interplay of shapes and textures.
A work that presents Las Ánimas' particular vision of the line that divides everyday, proximate and conscious reality (spatial, temporal, sensorial, palpable) from the ancestral or the unknown future.
The creative universe of Las Ánimas starts from and seeks to make the mind wander, as an altered vision of reality, created through a language of minimalist, geometric and iterative patterns; to develop an iconography of retro-futuristic, transgressive, ceremonial and deeply evocative aesthetics through experimentation with different materials, shapes and textures.
The pieces transmit a parallel, dreamlike world, full of visions; of references to art, history, religion and the memories underlying popular culture, as triggers of the levers of their own unconscious memory and also of the collective memory. An aesthetic universe where sumptuousness, mysticism and magic come together, pieces of ceremonial character, volumes and resounding colours, textures and materials of high sensory impact emerge.
