Wire art, also called wire sculpture is definitely an indispensable branch of recent art. Popularized by Alexander Calder, employing wires of single strands to make net like sculptures of products and living beings that are minimalist and abstract, wire art has been produced by artists who sometimes elect to deviate in the mainstream. This type of art form produced from wire is KAYA by Racso Jugarap. In the creating and modeling of KAYA, Racso capitalized on the endless possibilities that wire art world. KAYA, that is a wall piece wire artwork is 3d and it is weaved based on philosophy of self. Racso made KAYA to be a portal to somewhere – perhaps to one’s aspirations and dreams. Finally he concludes that everyone is free to interpret the piece, being in keeping with the philosophy of self.
Like a wall sculpture, KAYA embodies a tear shape with an airy loop in the centre connected by spider web like weave across the sides, fringing the empty circle in the center. What makes KAYA stick out may be the dimensional geometry from the web that is palpable when hung on the wall. KAYA can be a masterpiece in her own right, lovingly conceived by passion for wall installation and wire art.
The concept of KAYA isn’t wholly new – Racso derived it from his Sofia pieces. It has an overlapping design quality. He explained that Sofia can be a gargantuan wire piece appearing like interconnected cocoons. His pieces makes it as far as Los Angeles, California, Ny, Paris, France and Milan, Italy, being testimony to its covetous value and high artistry sense.
Racso is happy that KAYA is up to be featured at All4Home event in Brussels, Belgium as well as in Maison et Objet Paris for public viewing. When asked why is his wire pieces unique from the other wire sculptures, he said, “I guess because I never do each bit perfectly. My motto has always been, loving the beauty of imperfections which made the piece more interesting. I believe each Racso J pieces their very own signature or thumbprint. A story to share with. ”In an encapsulation, KAYA personifies the infinite variations possible in the realm of wire art and home design and he is happy that his work gets due recognition and appreciation.
