david moreno is a barcelona-based artist whose work aims and succeeds in transferring the two-dimensions of paper to the three dimensions of space. to do so, he first starts with a drawing that then becomes a sculpture made with steel rods that are juxtaposed several times, resulting in a series of micro-atmospheres. the unique motives generated are constantly repeated in an addictive, disturbing and poetic way at the same time.

the rhythm, the gesture, the line drawing and the experiment of drawing with thin steel rods and piano wires are the basis for this exploration of david moreno which results in small pieces with great delicacy and tender characteristics. once the pieces are on a gallery wall, light complements it by creating a game of shadows that gives another level of deepness to the drawings. when seeing the pieces, the viewer can sense a hand that goes around without tiring, over and over again.
