Virgo 5-25: The lightness of a playful calligraphy

With this work, I wanted to move away from the sometimes too rigid or austere image associated with the Virgo sign.This sculpture offers a radically different interpretation: a rounded,bouncy and decidedly playful writing. The symbol’s line doesn’t stop, it dances. I sought to materialize this vital impulse, this little inner music that animates the spirit of Virgo when fully in possession of its creativity and joy of life.

The combination of steel and bronze, worked in dripping (drop-by-drop fusion), gives these curves a sparkling texture. The metal lace here seems to play with emptiness, creating a perpetual motion that invites a smile. This sculpture is a piece from the Intimate range that brings an energy of dynamism, freshness, and optimism to your interior.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a "rounded and bouncy" shape for Virgo? Virgo is a late summer sign, associated with harvest and abundance. By giving it this bouncy calligraphy, I celebrate its generosity and its ability to adapt with flexibility. This sculpture shows that precision (typical of this sign) can also rhyme with whimsy and roundness. It is the sign of a lively and joyful spirit.

How does the dripping technique enhance this "playful" aspect? The drop-by-drop fusion creates irregular reliefs that capture light in a playful way. Unlike a smooth brushstroke, the steel and bronze lace offers a multitude of small points of brightness that seem to jump from one curve to another, visually reinforcing this bouncing effect.

What are the technical details of the steel and bronze on this piece? The gray steel provides the flexible and lively structure of the writing. The bronze is fused on the peaks of the loops to bring solar highlights. These bronze touches act like golden musical notes on a metal score, giving this sculpture a warm and communicative aura.

Is this a unique work? Absolutely. Such a spontaneous and free line cannot be reproduced identically. Created freehand, without any mold, piece 5-25 is the result of an instinctive gesture. It is an original creation signed Philippe Buil, delivered with its certificate of authenticity.

How to display this sculpture to highlight its dynamism? Placed on a light piece of furniture or in a lively living space, this sculpture will radiate through its form. Bright lighting will bring out the bronze "bubbles" and cast dancing, rounded shadows on your walls, thus extending the playful spirit of the work throughout the space.
