Asclepius


Materials: Metal and wood, year: 2022
The sculpture titled Asclepius was custom-designed for the Care XL health center in Rotterdam.
Its geometric design draws inspiration from the artistic tradition of Middle Eastern patterns, creating a unifying symbol for the center's diverse patient community. Standing 3 meters tall, Asclepius is prominently placed at the heart of the entrance hall. The sculpture features a spiral form composed of a square metal framework interwoven with triangular wooden elements. In the evening, it is illuminated, seamlessly integrating into the nighttime streetscape.
