Steel Passion by Made514
1xRun: Tell us a little bit about this piece. Was it part of a recent theme, series or show that you had?
Made514: This piece was painted in a leaf of slate rock that came from india. It’s been amazing to paint on this kind of surface because I like to paint on something live. I use to paint the shape of my letters searching curve line that are present in nature and this time I was facing a surface with a different nature pattern. The letters are based on a heart form and together they form the style in a unique heart shape It’s a kind of a metaphor about how we are all part of the same One.
