Enzo Catellani<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the ancient art of Japanese calligraphy (shod\u014d), Ens\u014d is an allegory of completeness and enlightenment: an imperfectly perfect circle that springs from a gentle, spontaneous movement of the hand. Ens\u014d is life, born to evolve until it is complete. And just like life, no one Ens\u014d is ever the same as another. During a period spent in Japan, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catellanismith.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Enzo Catellani<\/strong><\/a> discovered the beauty of these slow, precise movements, and is still at work in an attempt to reveal their essence.<\/p>\n<p>And this is how the delicate brushstroke takes on a three-dimensional character, becoming the \u201cobject\u201d of the new creation <strong>Ens\u014d<\/strong>. The blue circle, painted by hand, reproduces the fruit of that immediate movement, as if it had been drawn in space. The origin of <strong>Ens\u014d<\/strong> appears infused with ink, tailing off as it comes to the end of its journey.<\/p>\n<p>The colour, which lessens along the way, does not reach the closure of the circle, intentionally interrupting the beginning and end of a cycle to indicate that there are still openings for growth and evolution. The circle sculpture rests on a brass base, while the LED light source &#8211; for which an innovative patent pending wireless connection and distribution system has been used &#8211; is hidden behind the structure of the lamp, creating a soft light effect on the wall.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catellanismith.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Catellani &amp; Smith<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI find Ens\u014d, the circle symbol, particularly fascinating for what it represents: enlightenment, completeness, everything and nothing.
