It is called Robert Wechsler and he is the author of Money, a very interesting collection of geometric sculptures made entirely from coins.Hence the name of the project, 'Money', which comprises 20 works somewhere between art and three-dimensional technique.
The aim of the Wechsler is to bring attention to money, which has almost disappeared in its material guise and is increasingly being replaced by three-dimensional currency.
Moreover, the author also seems to have wanted to emphasise how incredible aesthetic potential is hidden in every object.
Le coin sculptures are a work of engineering and study of three-dimensionality and geometry and, at the same time, they enchant with their hypnotic perfection.
All the works seem to have a dual soul: the futuristic one linked to the form they propose, and the one turned to the past, to the history that accompanied each coin.
