lugufelo is a renowned sculptor who immigrated to the United States to escape the escalating political and social instability in his native country of Venezuela.
His distinctive multidimensional style engages multiple senses, creating an integrated experience that evolves over time, forcing the observer to continually reexamine their interpretation of what they see, observation after observation.
The true brilliance of lugufelo's work lies in his use and understanding of geometric shapes, which he capitalizes on to create tactile experiences using materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, and wood. Additionally, the subtle interplay of light and shadow cast by his pieces at different times of day further enhances the sensory experience.
He harnesses nature to amplify the senses even more, capturing the whispering wind gently passing through his art, or the roaring of the wind across its surfaces, integrating the experience beyond a mere colorful representation of his mind's eye and into a total immersion of insight beyond the physical.
