A Thousand Lives Aligned – No. 1
A sculptural reflection on urban life — composed of 1000 hand-placed solid brass nails.
“A Thousand Lives Aligned – No. 1” captures the dense rhythm and subtle order of a city seen from above. From up close, the brass nails form an abstract texture — intricate, chaotic, alive. But step back, and a deeper pattern emerges: streets, structures, lives — all flowing into one another.
Crafted from pure, untreated brass, the nails will slowly develop a natural patina over time, giving the piece increasing character and depth. Like the cities it echoes, this work will continue to evolve — shaped by light, air, and time.
Blending urban abstraction with sculptural minimalism, the piece balances tension and harmony. It is a city with no name, but with a thousand stories embedded in its form.
