Introducing "Floating Serves," an exquisite sculpture that captures the grace and energy of an athlete in mid-serve. Crafted from iron, travertine, and perlite, this dynamic piece measures 50x28x16 cm and weighs 2.1 kg. The sculpture features a human figure skillfully formed from iron wire, poised in an elegant motion as they launch a spherical perlite ball into the air. The figure stands on a travertine base, providing a natural and sturdy foundation that contrasts beautifully with the delicate wirework.
The artist's meticulous attention to detail and innovative use of materials bring this moment of athletic prowess to life. "Floating Serves" is a striking addition to any contemporary art collection, resonating with themes of movement, balance, and the beauty of human form.
