EQUILIBER EARRINGSEquilibrium and liberty
This piece is inspired in an imaginary game of the author that consists in the idea of a magic aquatic underworld: Santiago de Compostela. A place where there is water everywhere and after every storm skeletons of broken umbrellas lie everywhere like shipwrecked rests, where the inhabitants, floating creatures, develop gills and fins to adapt to this Atlantis.
From this environment, a new symbiotic and hybrid being was born, a mixture of bird and fish, adapted to the medium: drifting in the winter rain and floating in the spring showers. A being created by the structure of the streets in Santiago, and by the continuous flow of the rain and the wind.
This piece has an abstract secondary interpretation, related to concepts like duality and equilibrium, proceeding from Far Eastern philosophies. The main figure that inspires the design is that of the Siamese fighting fishes, representing for the author the duality between a strong, combative, and at the same time elegant, aerial and free character.
