RAD Sculpture Park

Green. On horizontal planes, on backdrops, among buildings.

Crossroads: artworks that mark boundaries. Boundaries between pavement and lawn, between vegetation and brick, between guardrail and the shrubs on the other side of the wall.

Juxtapositions of works in a garden by the lake, marked with two-tone alucobond butterflies suspended on reinforcement bars. An insectarium of curatorial texts, orientation signs, and maps. A collection of objects intersecting as a sub_text with the almost cursive writing of the "exhibition" journey. An orientation system completed with transparent jars filled with maps—for visitors who are lost or interested souvenirs folded in 5 parts.

Each crossroad is a moment of discovery within an exploration of a gallery scattered among plants. Assemblies of works understood as nodes in an adventure where every direction is the right one, and where getting lost is not just possible—it’s encouraged. Because there’s always something to find.

A sculpture is a marking. Three make a cluster. When there are more than four works in the visual field, it risks becoming ikebana—unless you have a scale switch.

Route shortcuts through branches, over the lake, along walls. Sculptures lifted from the horizontal plane, suspended on railings, on cornices between trees, or above the fountain.

Clusters of daytime works and nighttime sculptures. LED art. Reasons to wander through the garden when the line between lantern and metaphor begins to blur.

A composition of intersections—with 3 maps, 4 jars, and 113 butterflies in Caro Park, by the lake, in RAD Sculpture Park.
