INCROCI presents itself as an abstract metal work that immediately captures the attention thanks to the clever use of overlapping and engraved plates in bronzed brass. The play of levels and engraved lines creates a three-dimensional effect that, while remaining essential in its forms, conveys a sense of depth and movement.

The main surface, in brown and slightly iridescent tones, is crossed by vertical and horizontal signs that intersect with precision, evoking the idea of an urban map or a network of paths. The insertion of a smaller, richly textured panel in the lower right quadrant not only balances the composition, but adds a focal point that draws the eye and invites us to discover smaller details. This contrast between the open spatiality of the main lines and the density of the smaller section reflects well the theme of the “crossroads” as a meeting place between forces, directions and meanings.

The use of bronze, with its warm and metallic reflections, gives a sense of solidity and at the same time of refined elegance. The choice to leave visible the signs of the engravings and the variations in color on the surface gives the work an almost material character, as if it were an archaeological trace of a remote place.

INCROCI combines geometric minimalism and expressive force, offering the observer multiple interpretations: from the more formal references to the idea of a network or grid, to a symbolic suggestion of roads that meet and separate, as a metaphor for life paths.
