Description

In this sculpture from his iconic “Fleurs” series, Takis transforms the flower from a delicate natural element into a robust, metallic structure. Using bronze and iron—materials associated with industrial production—the artist subverts the traditional perception of the flower as a symbol of fragility. The work’s composition resembles an antenna or a mechanical system designed to capture signals, reinforcing the idea that plants are not static but part of a dynamic communication ecosystem. This allegory of energy and information transfer is central to Takis’ thinking. “Flower” is not merely an homage to nature; it is an exploration of the relationship between technology and organic life, seen through the lens of a unique artist and inventor.
