METAMORPHIC#006

€3,500.00

Fine-Art print on Wood
Unique artwork, 2022
140 x 90 x 1,5 cm

Dan Carabas deals with the distortion and transformation of the human body. By means of Shibari (a Japanese art of tying) and by draping fabrics, Carabas creates a paradox: while the ropes restrict the movements of the human body, it is the ropes that give the fabric its own dynamism and three-dimensionality. By deliberately altering the body through ropes and fabric, the final sculpture becomes dehumanized and appears to the viewer in a trance-like state.

Each sculpture was captured in photographs and printed on wood as a physical work of art, the random grain of the wood gives each final work its uniqueness since it’s impossible to repeat the fine-art print on the same piece of wood.

Exhibited:
2022, Dan Carabas solo exhibition at Kühlhaus Berlin, Germany
2023, Dan Carabas solo exhibition at Unpaired Gallery in Zug, Switzerland
2024, Dan Carabas solo exhibition at KitKatClub Berlin, Germany
