Letter S. The theory of letters evolution. (2024) 조형물 Sand 로

My career as a graffiti writer led me to paint my graffiti on subway trains. My name is SAND, and I have evolved my letters to bring them to their maximum evolution and beauty. The letter S is one of the letters that I have evolved the most because it is part of my name. Although my art was born on the tracks and in the tunnels in a free and illegal way, I have always had a great passion for Renaissance art, being Italian. The sculptures of Bernini and Michelangelo are sacred to me and so one day I decided to sculpt my graffiti-style letters in marble. I personally recovered the marble blocks in the quarries of Carrara, where they extracted the blocks for the great sculptors in the Renaissance. Seeing my letters emerge from an anonymous piece of marble was a huge satisfaction for me. The manual work was very tiring but just as fascinating. Being able to see my letters imprinted in this eternal matter made me happy, because in thirty years of graffiti writing I have always seen my graffiti being erased from the sheets of trains, but now they will remain for a long time. moreover, being able to work on three-dimensional volumes was a way of further satisfaction. My life as an artist is just like marble, it is hard but if worked with passion and creativity it can give great satisfaction.
