With a reconfigurable bronze sculpture, artist duo Giorgiko reflect on the invisible magic of human connection.
Unacquainted Friends places kindred spirits Wonder and Maria back-to-back. The pair are connected by a looped golden arch that rises from a small bowl which each holds, the lustre of the arch juxtaposing the earthy patina of the figures.
The sculpture encourages interaction - its figures can be rotated around the arch in different orientations, reflecting the various stages of friendship. Through playful movement, Giorgiko hope that viewers will consider that we are all perpetually connected by our humanity.
