A sculpture made of a series of corten butterflies on steel, “Serie farfalle” turns metal into lightness and movement, bringing poetry and nature into urban and museum spaces.
A sculpture installed at the Museo San Francesco in Greve in Chianti, made of elegant corten steel butterflies set on thin metal rods. It stands out for its visual lightness and the harmonious dialogue between industrial material and natural forms.
The butterflies, symbols of transformation and rebirth, seem to hover in space, creating a dynamic, poetic effect that changes with the light and the viewer’s perspective. The oxidised surface of the corten gives back warm earthy shades, blending perfectly with the surrounding landscape and architecture.
“Serie farfalle” invites reflection on metamorphosis and on art’s ability to turn matter into emotion and poetry, bringing a fragment of nature into urban and museum settings.
On display at Museo San Francesco, Greve in Chianti
