Visually, the intervention will work as a metaphore for the union between art and urban life. The metaphore resides specially in the work\u2019s image, that embodies the symbol of the Needle, a tool used to create connections. This monumental needle intervention will cross through the museum\u2019s building, uniting the inside of the cultural space with the outside, and vice-versa. The needle\u2019s thread extends the symbolic meaning, embracing nearby sctructures such as buildings.\n\nFormal approach: \n\nMaterially, the work consists in several elements, divided to enable attachment to the architecture. Each element is handbuilt by the artist, using a PVC and polystyrene core, covered with fiberglass, polished and painted professionaly with chrome synthetic enamel. The finishing creates a metallic effect, mimicking the appearance of the real object (needle).\nThese materials and techniques make the work weather and time resistant.\nThe thread element is created using plastic and polyethylene, flexible and very resisting materials. Dimentions may vary.\nThe work will be attached to the chosen building using a screwed steel base, as shown in the images attached.\nTotal dimensions may vary according to site.","space":"- The work should be installed in a museum in Curitiba (BR). There\u2019s not a specific place indicated yet, for the location can be one of many. Images attached show studies simulating the work in three possibile locations (all museums).\n- The work will intervene both inside and outside the chosen building, simulating the crossing of the \u201cneedle\u201d through the space.\n- The thread element will exist accordingly to the chosen location, interacting specifically with the surroundings.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"es","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Geraldo Zamproni","surname":"Geraldo Zamproni","email":"zampronigeraldo@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"FP514424","address":"TABAJARAS St. n.1050","city":"Curitiba","nacionality":"Brazilian","country_id":"34","birthdate":"1960-01-18T03:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1960-01-18T03:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+55 41 99979-0640","web":"https:\/\/www.zamproni.com\/","fileCount":9}
