Freestanding sculpture
Pickup currently not available
This mechanical snail, with its red shell and articulated body, is a sculptural reinterpretation of the famous mechanical snails designed by Hotteterre, a character born from the imagination of Francesc Grimalt. It is an impossible, solemn creature whose slow movement seems to carry fragments of the past and a quiet promise of endurance.
Sculpture modeled in clay, carved plaster, and repurposed objects; reproduced in resin. Painted with shellac, chalk paint, acrylics, and varnish.
