Chaos, cycle of Genesis

The sculpture “Chaos” was conceived as a monument to creation. I give the origin of chaos, the ancient Greek myth of origin, a new meaning and a completely different interpretation, and, in a symbolic representation, I give it a figurative form. The ancient Greeks imagined Chaos as an eternal mass without a definite form. Chaos has three main characteristics, it is a bottomless bay where everything falls endlessly, it is a contrast to the Earth as a stable ground, a place without possible orientation, everything falls in all possible directions, after Earth and Heaven separated, Chaos stands between them and divides them. The intertwining of the body, passion, circular shape, characters in the vortex, in the womb from which the universe is born, characters (childish characteristics (symbolism of the womb in which the child develops) are curious, shameless, do not hide the inclination of pleasure (as the original instinct), agile, they are scattered in all directions, diverse, some are satisfied, some are crying, complaining, sobbing, some are jealous, some are even desperate, hungry, thirsty or missing something else, … Characters are carriers, created (as in the original myth chaos) from nothingness, just created, but they also create, in the vortex of their bodies that symbolizes chaos, form a strong whole, from which they can not get out, but in which they can not quite enter. The characters shown are not the first forms of existence, or deities born of chaos, but they embody chaos, they are chaos.
