Crossroads – A Case for Quiet Meditation in Nature🌿
Born in 1978 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Matías Di Carlo lives and works in Málaga, Spain. However, it is his Italian roots and a long tradition of artistic iron work that have influenced his art. Di Carlo is the fourth generation who has mastered fire and metals. Abstract, monumental sculptures dominate his artistic expression.
In Artipelag’s outdoor exhibition Sculpture in Nature, Di Carlo is represented with the work Crossroads, the latest addition to Artipelag’s art collection. Crossroads is a meeting place between the city, nature and different cultures. Although the sculpture takes its form from a mountain, the inspiration comes as much from the Japanese art of paperfolding, often called “origami”. The connection is an expression of the artist’s meditative relationship to existence and nature. Crossroads makes a case for quiet meditation in nature, which also characterises Artipelag’s sculpture collection.
The artworks featured in Sculpture in Nature can be seen along the walking paths in the surrounding forests, meadows, seashore, jetty, and headland. Enhance your sculpture walk with our folder containing a map and information about each artwork, available for purchase in the reception.
