Metamorfosis 1980

"Metamorfosis" is a 1980 sculpture by Colombian artist Edgar Negret. This abstract, geometric piece features a series of curved, red metal forms that are assembled in a dynamic, flowing composition. It is indicative of Negret's exploration of the transformative and dynamic nature of forms, often drawing inspiration from nature and the human body. The sculpture's title, "Metamorphosis," reinforces its theme of change and evolution. Negret's "Metamorfosis" exemplifies his signature style of "constructive art," which involved the creation of intricate, geometric sculptures from metal, often incorporating found objects.
