sugar no sugar molecule, 2002
sugar-cubes, polystyrene, marble
80x80x45cm

In “sugar no sugar” marble and polystyrene cubes breaks into infinity transmuting into sugar-cubes. Each of these elements are different and familiar at the same time. They are all white and grey but in a different way and they have different consistencies while, in the other hand, sugar has a crystalline structure similar to marble. They can be visually confused. Touching and nominating the several elements you can divide them into ‘sugar’ and into ‘no sugar’. A writing, “…sugar sugar no sugar sugar …” on a wall recreates the same sculpture but in words. The whole sculpture crows and relates to itself from its micro-unity, “intelligent particles” or “little beings” as Fernando Melani would have called them as they also relate to each other always differently.
