Nucleus

NUCLEUS—a multi-element mirror, a sculpture, and an art installation. Made of Inox colourized stainless steel using FiDU technology, it is one of the statement objects in Oskar Zięta’s oeuvre.

Circled journey

NUCLEUS is a juxtaposition of eleven triangular shapes forming an ideal circle. Although its name refers to the realm of the organic world ( the cell structure of living organisms), its form was inspired rather by the cultural heritage of a nimbus. The juxtaposition of dynamic, even aggressive, geometric forms with the soft and regular shape of the circle creates a terrific effect. Additionally, the elements of the coloured structure change their hue gradually, from emerald green to sapphire blue shades from the Gradient Collection.

Experiencing hues

The striking visual outcome of NUCLEUS is the result of Zięta’s experiments with applying layers of colour coating on the surface of the polished steel. He managed to maintain the reflecting nature of metal and mix it with deep and strong colours.

A frequenter

NUCLEUS is a sculpture-like mirror or a mirror-like sculpture, therefore as a Zieta Studio object was exhibited i.e. in Line Park - an integrated platform of home life and art fashion located in “Dongxin He Chuang Yuan” in Hangzhou and during the Design China in Beijing.
