Francisco Sierra «Circle of Life», 2024
The «Circle of Life» by Francisco Sierra in collaboration with BUREAU BUREAUX & von Bartha
Edition 100 + 5 APs
Scarf, acrylic wool, approx. 190 x 25 cm
The „Circle of Life“ fan scarf by Francisco Sierra shows the life circle of a creature, a larve passing through pimply adolescence and wild years, depressing middle age and reaching serenity in its final years. The motif surged for the first time in Francisco Sierra’s work as paintings on antique Delft tiles during the Summer Academy with Pipilotti Rist at Zentrum Paul Klee in 2010, when the theme of the circularity between life and art was discussed. The paradox of the circle as a line is broken through the characteristics of the scarf, as one has the possibility to wrap our condition humaine around the neck and thus feel a little comfort.
