Lull Sculpture Series
Design by Joel Escalona
Balance and tension are at the core of these sculptures. The interplay between the smooth, rounded forms and solid, angular bases creates a delicate equilibrium that invites contemplation. Fragile elements seem to find strength in their very vulnerability, constantly negotiating their own stillness. The tension remains present, yet never descends into chaos, evoking a quiet pause, a moment of serenity in the motion of life.
The juxtaposition of curved, pebble-like shapes against straight-edged bases mirrors the harmony between the organic and the geometric. These forms feel both natural and sculpted, as though shaped by the slow, deliberate hand of nature and the precision of craftsmanship. It’s as if these pieces rest in a moment of perfect balance—a pause between forces that seem at odds, yet together, create something deeper and more profound.
This collection embodies a monumental idea—one that celebrates the subtle tension between fragility and endurance. Though the forms may appear delicate, their strength lies in resilience. Each sculpture stands tall and quietly powerful, offering a sense of solace in stillness, a reminder that stability can emerge from the most unlikely structures.
These pieces explore the delicate dance between opposing forces, where solace and tension coexist in harmony. The most meaningful moments in life often come from these pauses, from embracing the quiet spaces between movement. These sculptures whisper a truth—that transformation often finds its roots in stillness, in the spaces between tension and release.
Each sculpture is crafted from solid wood in our workshop in Mexico City, ensuring no two pieces are ever alike—not only in form, but also in the natural texture and tone of the wood itself. Just as no two trees are the same, each piece carries its own unique character, shaped by the grain and color variations of the wood. This natural diversity is what makes each sculpture truly one-of-a-kind. These works are made to order, allowing the time and care needed to ensure that every piece reflects its own individuality and beauty, celebrating the organic and the serene pause within the material.
