Eixo Sculpture

Eixo, Portuguese for axis, refers to the defining intersection where it all clicks in place for the sculpture: the point where two flat aluminium planes slot into one another at a right angle, held by nothing but the precision of the fit. That moment of assembly is the essence of the design. 

Each plate is cut from raw aluminium, a material chosen for the high tolerances it allows and the directness of its presence. Given a brushed finish, the matte surface catches light without fully reflecting it, shifting in tone as the day moves. What changes more dramatically is the silhouette: viewed from one angle, the sculpture looks almost like a thin vertical line; rotate it, and a broad organic surface emerges. It is the same object, made new by each step around it.

Equally at home on a shelf, a sideboard, or in open space, the Eixo Sculpture asks only to be placed where light and shadow can do their work.
