Wire art, also known as wire sculpture is definitely an indispensable branch of recent art. Popularized by Alexander Calder, employing wires of single strands to make net like sculptures of things and living beings which can be minimalist and abstract, wire art has been produced by artists who sometimes choose to deviate in the mainstream. This type of art form made from wire is KAYA by Racso Jugarap. Inside the creating and modeling of KAYA, Racso capitalized on the endless possibilities that wire art world. KAYA, which is a wall piece wire artwork is 3d and is weaved based on philosophy of self. Racso made KAYA to become portal to somewhere – perhaps to one’s aspirations and dreams. Finally he concludes that everyone costs nothing to interpret the piece, being in keeping with the philosophy of self.
As a wall sculpture, KAYA embodies a tear shape having an airy loop at the center connected by spider web like weave around the sides, fringing the empty circle at the center. Why is KAYA be noticeable will be the dimensional geometry from the web that is palpable when hung on the wall. KAYA can be a masterpiece in her own right, lovingly conceived by adoration for wall installation and wire art.
The thought of KAYA isn’t wholly new – Racso derived it from his Sofia pieces. There’s an overlapping design quality. He stated that Sofia can be a gargantuan wire piece looking like interconnected cocoons. His pieces makes it as far as L . a ., California, New York, Paris, France and Milan, Italy, being testimony to its covetous value and artistry sense.
Racso is happy that KAYA is perfectly up to be featured at All4Home event in Brussels, Belgium as well as in Maison et Objet Paris for public viewing. When asked why is his wire pieces unique in the other wire sculptures, he explained, “I guess since i never do every bit perfectly. My motto has long been, loving the advantage of imperfections which made the piece more interesting. I think each Racso J pieces their very own signature or thumbprint. A story to inform. ”In an encapsulation, KAYA personifies the infinite variations possible in the world of wire art and home design and he is satisfied that his work gets due recognition and appreciation.
