We all come from childhood, and for sure there, in childhood, each of us had tricycle, the main reason for knocked down knees and scratched palms. Probably, it was in memory of the bygone days that the artist Sergio Garcia created a series of abstract sculptures from such bicycles. The result is incredible transport concepts of the future from the transport of the past. Sergio Garcia is one of those people who believe that children's smiles give joy and light, without light there is no art, and without art there is no life itself. So it is not surprising that the artist took the idea for his art project from childhood, drawing inspiration from his past, and from the present of his own children.
Yes, these bicycles are no longer to ride. In some, the frame connecting the wheels shot up into the clouds, others even "rooted" with this frame into the floor, and still others cannot be called bicycles … So, something strange about three wheels and two handlebars, a real miracle transport for Siamese twins. However, art objects do not need to be useful; the main thing for them is to impress. And they are impressive.
A small exhibition of unusual sculptures from tricycles will open on December 29 at New York's Frosch & Portmann Gallery.
