BECOMING

We were not born to remain mud: we are made to become light.

Follow the work from the bottom up. The base is rough, heavy, anchored to the earth: it is our material origin.

But observe what happens as you ascend: the bronze twists.

In that spiral lies the physical struggle of transformation, the fight necessary to avoid remaining the same.

Cancogni captures the destiny of every soul in matter: the moment when effort dissolves and form purifies itself, becoming a slender flame pointing inevitably to the sky.
