Original idea was to work on a wheel support structure for the Wheels’ Firework” installation. Each one of these structures was going to be composed by a bicycle wheel and by a wooden arrow approximately three meters long. One day, when Robert Verch came to visit me at the studio, he spontaneously placed one of the arrows towards on the wall. Together we realized that this long arrow was also the perfect match for his project What’s Your Point Jalovik. Following upon this, we decided to embark together on a common project that would combine my work and his conceptual approach, incorporating performance.With extraction of graphic sign to a three-dimensional object that can be handled comfortably, the arrows become an object that you can indicate physically. The omnipresent form of the arrows and enlargement of dimension invoke spectators to ironic representation.The Wheels’ Firework consists of four bicycle wheels placed on an axis pending between two support elements, and a series of party fireworks attached to them. With the power of fire, the wheels turn around and indicate the party time and celebration of the forty years of the Jalovik colony.
