An empty implosion - 0922 6 x 6 mm square section steel, arc welded and painted with anti-oxidant paint and matt black finish. Critical text Implosion is an inward collapse, a concentration of matter in a small space, a phenomenon in which a body, subject to external pressure, collapses on itself. Anelo 1997 subverts the phenomenon by compressing towards the center of his sculpture not a mass, but an empty space. Anelo's implosion is a dense inner concentration, it holds and hides in the intertwining of an architecture of forms the infinitesimal of a secret that is not visible to the naked eye. If the explosion is noise and an outflow of energy, the implosion is silence and peace, it's collapsing into the abyss of oneself. Let me implode in the peace of void. The forms of An empty implosion in their compactness absorb the observer in a centripetal fall, towards our buried center, the infinity that is within us. However, the void that the sculpture contains is vital, changeable, it changes appearance depending on the perspective from which you look at it, it lets itself be crossed by light and shadows, remaining protected in an enclosure of lines. The iron of which the sculpture is made up tells of the core of the Earth, composed mainly of this metal, which is reproduced by stellar nucleosynthesis: we are all made of stars. And if the work attracts us to the center of ourselves, it thus tells at the same time of the infinite inside and outside of us, the deepest and the highest.

Anelo1997 is a workshop that designs and manufactures iron sculptures, installations, and architecture. Architectures of pure forms, ferrous structures like diagrams that represent the relationships between men and with space. Archetypal forms, memories that are structured, become fixed in lattices of cubes and lines and continue to project themselves around, in dialogue with the observer. The intertwining of forms tell of encounters, relationships, places and wills. Our stories need lines, welded points and meeting fences to be fixed in space, therefore in time, structuring themselves as a multiplication of shapes that follow one another and stop reproducing only when the meaning is grasped and fixed. Since childhood, we draw lines that run along and off the pages and which in the encounter with a thought, with the Other, close and create a space of relationship where something happens. It’s easy to imagine yourself walking those lines through time and your own memories, stopping in the perfect enclosures where even someone Else has found their meaning in our same time and in our same space. The forms of Anelo criticize and choose to reveal architecture, they follow the need to go back to the origin of things according to a reconstructive criticism. Anelo reaches the zero degree of architecture, modeling the forms in a highly reproductive possibility and maintaining their character of stability, but in a dynamic body. The forms of Anelo continue to move and project themselves around, they change as the point of view changes: stable forms in a flow of transformation.
