With 40 magnetic elements that can be rearranged at will, the viewer becomes the creator, shaping limitless variations and stories on a magnetic canvas.

About this work
Sperms on a wall might sound provocative at first, but Celeritas (Latin for speed) is designed to trigger deep, often humorous, and always meaningful discussions. It reflects on our shared origin: the fact that every one of us was once "the fastest." It is a celebration of independence, life, and the chaotic beauty of creation.
By moving the elements around, the viewer engages in a philosophical play. Whether it’s a funny remark or a deep reflection on life’s trajectory, the artwork changes with the group of people viewing it. Created in 2017, this piece laid the groundwork for all my subsequent interactive works, establishing the principle that art should be a tactile, evolving experience.
Inquiry & Customization
Because Celeritas is an unlimited edition, it can be tailored to various formats and spaces. I look forward to discussing your vision for this piece.
