  BORJA BARRAJÓN (Madrid, 1985). "Cylindrical composition and line V", 2020. Matt black calatorao marble and carbon steel base with oxide patina finish. Unique piece. Attach certificate issued by the artist. It is delivered in a wooden box with wheels also to facilitate its transport. Measures: 87.5 x 26 x 20 cm; 179 x 32 x 32 cm (frame). "Through an abstract language, my work is born from the purpose of understanding the space and the limits of the material that supports it. It is built from the dialogue that arises through direct contact with the material throughout its development, which allows me to question at every step the relationship between the elements that compose it and its formal aesthetics. Conditioned by the mood of the individual and its present context, I understand the work as the synthesis of the conclusions given during the creative process. Pursuing the sensory experience through the object and its light, I invite to a reading in which to reflect on the order of its elements, the importance of the emptiness that is part of them and the reason for their existence". This sculpture reflects the perception of the artist's words, the piece reflects a great volumetry, dominated and conceived as a game of forms that come together to form an intricate whole. Through the matte finish shows an aseptic, almost industrial look, which is broken with the presence of the white beta located at the base. The base is included and screwed to the work, it is removable for easy transport and installation. Borja Barrajón Acedo began his training as a sculptor at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Madrid in 2006.
