Gravity 10.55 Sculpture | YOYO BALAGUÉ

€0.00

Gravity 10.55 is a sculpture by Yoyo Balagué that explores balance, weight and the quiet tension between opposing forces. Three rough-cut stone blocks rise in a slightly offset column, crowned by a white clay sphere that seems to rest on the very edge of equilibrium.

The contrast between the raw, irregular stone and the soft, rounded sphere drives the piece: one grounded, mineral and ancient, the other pure and weightless, as if held in place by gravity alone. The subtle shifts between the blocks create a sense of movement within stillness, giving the composition a calm, meditative presence that changes as light moves across its surfaces.

The sphere is made of white clay with 40% coarse grog, which gives its surface a fine, granular texture that echoes the natural grain of the stone below. Standing 170 cm tall, Gravity 10.55 sits between contemporary sculpture, material research and collectible design.

About the artist

YOYO BALAGUÉ

Yoyo Balagué approaches creation as a physical and instinctive act, where the body becomes the essential tool for shaping her work. With a multidisciplinary background in art and movement, her practice is rooted in exploring intuition and spatial connection through gesture.

Since the beginning of her career, she has developed a unique artistic language in which abstraction and minimalism merge to capture the essence of the moment. Her work reflects a pursuit of the essential through direct interaction with materials such as clay, canvas, and paper. She has drawn the attention of galleries and collectors for her ability to evoke sensations beyond form.

Yoyo works in deep concentration, often with her eyes closed, allowing movement to flow freely. Her creative process is a meditation in itself, a journey toward the purity of experience. The absence of superfluous elements in her pieces reinforces her search for the fundamental, establishing a dialogue between body, material, and emptiness.

For Balagué, art is more than an object—it is a sensory experience that transforms both space and those who inhabit it. Her work invites a perception beyond the visual, fostering an intimate connection with materiality and the present moment. Each piece becomes a trace of movement, an imprint of time and energy, where gesture and matter coexist in perfect balance.

Her artistic approach extends beyond traditional mediums, embracing performance and site-specific installations that highlight the fluidity of the creative act. Through her work, she challenges the boundaries between body and space, revealing the invisible forces that shape our perception.
