About the Item
A unique and captivating sculpture for any room. Placed near a source of daylight this work is extraordinary in terms of how it will react to light, through colored light and change with the different times of day. The form is that of a sailboat form paired down to essence. The planes of acrylic resin change as you move around the work. It sits on its own base which is original to the piece.
A futuristic way to bring light. color and mass all at the same time into play. Vasa's work is highly respected and he is unparalleled in his use of this medium.
The work is signed and has its archive number next to the signature. We have a detail shot of the signature area which does not photograph clearly but the signature is perfectly visible and it is a recorded work.
Often times an artist starts with an interest that is quite simple sounding in its objective. In Vasa’s case it was an interest to place colors next to each other, in space. He is modest man who then does not take credit for the incredibly hard work and dedication he has now given his art and interest that went well beyond simple experimentation.
Sailboat Form seems to be one of the shapes that he did a number of times and it’s a wonderful shape. It is evocative of a sail and imbues his sculpture which normally has an architectural feel to a piece that has movement and even an element of softness. Often in these works he does not dissect the form with color blocks so there is less play of color but there is still a subtlety of color plays which makes one want to walk around the piece.
