Santiago Medina

Santiago Medina's sculptures flow between organic and organo-geometric abstractionism. His sculptures balances masterfully the opposites of yin and yang in art. This gives them a lot of movement but at the same time elegance and minimalism. 

All sculptures are made with the highest quality Italian stainless steel available and imported from the Milan, Italy area. They are hand made by directly welding piece by piece together of the Italian stainless steel plates into sculptures full of movement and light. The surface is finished with high quality mirror finish intertwined with fish scale and opaque highlights to accentuate the planes and depth of the sculpture. Some sculptures have a special tinted finish such as red and blue which allows to see the stainless steel full reflectivity but adds a beautiful color palette to the sculpture. Tinted is done with special baked aerospace paint. Other sculptures contrast rusted steel  or blue jean texture with stainless steel to accentuate the beauty of the opposites. 

Many of the sculptures are free of a base allowing them to be totally free in time and space. They can be placed vertically or horizontally allowing to have multiple sculpture renditions in one. The collector becomes part of the artistic expression by selecting the position which full fills more his or her artistic taste. Other sculptures have a pin mechanism which allows the collector to select there favorite angle. State-of –the-art LED lights can be added to take the sculpture into a whole new sculptor level by providing interesting color accents during the day or at night. The LED lights can be easily programed to different setting which can have a power symbolic impact (i.e. Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness) or incorporate natures rhythmic cycles such as slow breathing or the waves washing on the beach in and out. The lights can be synchronized with music crescendos and decrescendos if so desired. The artist provides the artistic framework so the viewer and collector can be part of the artistic experience and, hence, take it to its fullest expression.
