Petzl's "Composition XXI" and "Composition XX" pieces, rendered in aluminium, echo the industrial-age embrace of new materials and methods. They evoke the constructivist sculptures of Naum Gabo and Antoine Pevsner, pushing the boundaries of abstraction and form. The skeletal structures, with their angular and interlocking segments, conjure a sense of architectural blueprints brought to life, offering a study in balance and tension reminiscent of the poise found in Alberto Giacometti's "Walking Man" series.

An abstract, figurine cubism styled sculpture welcomes you, which elements are standing like symbols or sign fragments on top of each other and reveal their unique message, depending on the angle you are looking at. A discovery journey for the senses in the shape of a column.
