RADIOZOA X
Description

The Radiozoa series echoes the marine past of the Coahuila desert, when primitive corals covered the seabed.

Produced by successive layers of colloidal silica, zirconium sand and silica sand. This combination forms a material known as a refractory ceramic shell, used in the lost-wax bronze casting process. The ceramic shell is only a secondary material in the traditional process, since the bronze is released only if the shell is broken.

In the Radiozoa series, the ceramic shell abandons its condition as waste from the sculptural process, becoming itself a sculpture, trying to create a dialogue between the notion of mold and content, between glass and container of life. It symbolizes, in turn, the contradiction of past life in the desert due to its coral appearance and a present arid life due to its fossil appearance.
