The Christian Mechanical Fish goes with the flow?
how many times you see the same show?
For every my brothers- today big YO

What does a fish say? If it has no voice? It's your choice - say what's in your soul.

Whatever you plan it will be fun
I say - I swim up and never give up. Please don't shut up. I give you this rap with water trap.

Pap parara pap won't stop me crab, please don’t me grab

I'm slippery
I'll be the cherry
at the top- please flow up

do it again, I'll explain

don't be shy, please don't cry

say goodbye
do water jump

another cover wakes you up like a shower. if you want to be a lover- emotional rollover will give you power, today is the game over.

„The Christian Mechanical Fish"- goes with the flow?. This artwork presents a unique outdoor sculpture that resembles a fish, ingeniously crafted from various metal components. The setting is a serene landscape with a pond and trees, providing a natural backdrop that contrasts with the industrial materials of the sculpture. The sculpture's body is composed of coiled metal resembling a fish skeleton, with a circular metal piece functioning as the eye. This blend of nature and machine elements creates an intriguing juxtaposition, inviting viewers to contemplate the relationship between technology and the natural world. The artwork effectively uses the reflective properties of metal to interact with the surrounding environment, adding layers of depth and complexity to the piece as it catches different lights throughout the day. The choice of location, beside a small pond, enhances the thematic elements of the fish motif, evoking thoughts on aquatic life and industrialization. This piece is a thoughtful exploration of form and function, with a distinctive style that merges sculpture with environmental art.
1 - Symbols and iconography :The artwork is a metal sculpture representing a fish made from mechanical parts. The fish symbolizes life and nature, contrasting with the mechanical springs and gears representing industry and technology. This suggests a narrative of industrialization converging with the natural world, highlighting themes of harmony and conflict between nature and machinery.

4 - Colour analysis :The sculpture predominantly uses the natural metallic color of iron and steel, emphasizing industrial qualities. The subdued, neutral tones provide contrast against the green landscape, drawing attention to the reflective and matte surfaces. The use of a single color palette enhances focus on form and structure.

5 - Composition :The sculpture is strategically placed within a natural setting, using the surrounding landscape to frame the industrial form. The fish shape creates a sense of flow and direction, guiding the eye along the curvatures of the springs and the circular form of the fish’s eye. The placement and form create a balanced interaction with the environment.
