Philosophical Wire Art

Made of Agus Kama Loedin’s intricate wire weaving, employing contemporary materials (coloured aluminium and copper wires) in shaping tribal and traditional forms. The inverted approach between material and object is a sharp paradoxical statement. A reminder of the structure of human identity. Wherein lies our connection to inherent roots. Our heritage. Regardless of form, tangible materials are only vessels, that carry a far deeper spiritual consciousness. At the skeletal, armature of our being, we share a universal and ancient memory of our collective evolution. The Eye brings us back to this omniscient knowing. It is a reminder that our self-honesty is the seed of all positive beginnings.
