Rum & Coke 2003

This 20th-century sculpture, "Rum & Coke" by Camilla d'Errico, looks like a musical score standing on its end! It seems to have emerged through trial and error, with each element shifting and finding its place. I can almost feel the artist experimenting with the wooden sticks, painting each one a bright color, carefully placing each one just so. The texture and color shape our experience and create emotional resonance. The straight black line is so decisive, right next to the playful curves. What did the artist feel at that moment? The piece is in dialogue with other painters and sculptors, and offers a way of seeing, thinking, and experiencing the world. It's as if d'Errico is in an ongoing conversation across time, inspiring creativity, and embracing ambiguity. This piece welcomes multiple interpretations.
