The Game – Sofia Venâncio

The Game – Sofia Venâncio
“By manipulating the piece, the spheres move on top of it, resulting in a concentric dance created
by the spinning top base. A movement that transports us onto the spheres, as if it were us scrolling through that track,
bumpy and fast, a path that isn’t always certain and leads to improvisation.”

Main piece: Stoneware with red iron oxide (1245º).
