The Tubular Bones are a series of sculptures characterized by skeletal and monochromatic forms, conceived by the artist as essential and twisted structures reminiscent of tubular bones. These works seem to explore anatomy and the essence of form through a complexity of branching shapes, akin to anatomical studies or drawings of skeletal structures.

The forms of the Tubular Bones develop organically and branch out, evoking a sense of natural growth while also appearing almost mechanical, as if they are a synthesis of biological structure and artificial architecture. Their contortions create sinuous movements, suggesting a tension between strength and fragility, typical of skeletons.

In the process of creating these sculptures, the artist investigates the fundamental structures of life trying to distill the complexity of organic form into essential lines and reduced materials through an aesthetic that is both minimalist and evocative.

Moreover, these sculptures are considered “preparatory” for the creation of the Singing Tubes, suggesting that the Tubular Bones serve as a conceptual framework for a subsequent series, where the skeletal structure evolves into sound-based forms. This thematic connection between the works offers insight into the artist’s creative process, starting with a reflection on form and structure and then moving towards other expressive dimensions.
