Knoted triangle, 2024
Avenca fern branches, elastic string
This work from Daniel Steegmann Mangrané’s series of prepared sculptures made from split twigs, intertwining the two parts, as if mirrored. Their delicate branches form a miniature thicket in which a triangular shape is drawn with elastic string. The graceful sculpture takes on an embodied, perhaps even anthropomorphic quality, suggesting a sense of both fragility and resilience.
