Flowform Fragment

Bending, curling, and twisting like a relic shaped by time, Flowform Fragment by Manuel Sarmiento is a sculptural meditation in recycled steel. This small but evocative piece resists clear categorization — its flowing profile and fragmented silhouette evoke a variety of interpretations: a wing, a wave, or a calligraphic stroke mid-motion.
The surface features subtle hammer marks, tonal variations, and a delicately carved signature at the right edge — a rare and intentional touch from the artist. One end gently lifts while the other recedes, holding the viewer’s gaze in a quiet balance of tension and release. Crafted entirely from discarded metal, the work invites reflection on impermanence, beauty, and rebirth.
