Salvatore Garau "strikes" again. This time two of his invisible sculptures were placed in Jerusalem. One on the Temple Mount, the other in front of the Western Wall. The visual artist originally from Santa Giusta (Oristano) called them “Love, Immense Love”: both are three meters high and are as similar as two drops of water.
Following his philosophy, and being invisible to the eyes, "everyone can create forms with their own thoughts and imagination".
«The absence of matter – explains Garau, born in 1953 – is an act of love towards the unknown and towards the mystery to which almost all of humanity entrusts itself. We are living in a time where information has overcrowded our existence. It is necessary to cleanse the mind and sight of excess images, discover the strength of the essential and deprive ourselves of all the frills that weigh down our lives. The two sculptures of Jerusalem, a respectful impalpable song that we can nevertheless hear, are also the response of Human Intelligence to Artificial Intelligence, before it takes over completely. Invisible sculptures are the only ones in the world that can never be copied by AI."
The two works installed in Jerusalem are the fourth and fifth after Sardinia, Milan and New York (2020/2021) of the 7 that Garau will set up in as many places around the world.
