s a series of works created using concertina barbed wire — the razor-edged type employed along military borders. The project, initiated in 2023, was also presented on the occasion of PARÀ DÓXA, the solo exhibition at @galleria.lampo. These sculptures are made from galvanized steel coils, welded and transformed into sculptural forms. The overall project extends to approximately 40 kilometers, mirroring the length of the Gaza Strip. The coils vary in size and weight: • Ø 69 cm, 500 m of wire → 30–40 kg • Ø 150 cm, 1000 m of wire → approx. 100 kg Each element is painted pink on one side and blue on the other, turning a material conceived to wound into one that evokes an infantile, almost toy-like aesthetic — a disarming transformation of violence into delicate illusion.
