Life cycle: the design proposal


3

Emerging from the rock and finally reaching the purest forms, “Life Cycle” (our proposal) symbolizes the art and science of steelmaking. In the foreground, we can see the World supported by the Steel, which is represented by the crystallographic direction with the greatest resistance in the iron. The latter proyects into the Universe, beyond the perimeter of the work’s base, as a sign of “supremacy” and “continuous development”.Linked shapes at the top and the design of the base are a sample of the steel transformation capability, thus accomplishing the inspiring idea of this creation.

En partant de la roche et allant jusqu’au formes les plus pures, « Ciclo de Vida » (la conception proposée ) symbolise l’art et la science de l’activité sidérurgique.Dans un premier plan on voit le Monde prenant appui sur l’Acier, représenté par la direction cristallographique de la plus grande résistance du Fer. Cette dernière s’ouvre à l’Univers en débordant le périmètre de la base de l'œuvre, signe de sa « suprématie » et « dépassement continuel». Les formes entrelacées dans la partie supérieure et le design de la base sont un indices de la capacité de transformation de l’acier, en achevant ainsi l’idée inspiratrice de cette réalisation.
