Have you ever had a deja vu? Have you ever “felt” something before it happened?
As always in these situations, you can believe this story as well as not. Whoever knows me and who got this work, will be witness:
This is the story of this work, even though, given the distances (in light years), it already happened million years ago but has come to us only now.
When I created this metalart, inspired by the cosmic theme, I pictured in my mind two suns, two stars, rotating close releasing waves from their dance. I previously called it “Gravitational Waves”.
Now it’s called “Gravity Deja Vu” just because it was finished and previewed two days before the extraordinary astrophysics detection of neutron stars collision that led to the generation of gravitational waves for the first time in the history from visible stars and not from black holes!

RUNE
RUNE – A NORWAY RUNICLE POEM – 40 x 30 cm – Brass (Ottone) / Stone effect
The poem is backed up by a Norwegian author of the late 13th century. It consists of hexameters, each of which contains two semi-detached judgments.
Modern artists bother to find a way to impress and express making a new creative art, sometimes by shocking art ideas, other times by minimal works; but the fact is that even creative artist offer no real art innovations, just a reinventing and a reproposal of old art techniques. In this "already seen" scenario, metal art regain this traditional art material. Creative art expressed by modern metal art is an endeavour to reinvent the metal as modern art material but, a lot of times, it is used just as a “base”: this leads to diminishing the metal as modern art material instead of elevating it to metal art. Honestly, I wouldn’t call me a modern artist, not even a creative artist, much more a real metal artist: my metal art comes form a new technique of mine which changes the metal in its depths. My metal art is not “using the modern metal to make something artistic”, while I turn metal to become art itself.
