Floating Ribbon Twister

by Christian Ovís

‘Floating Ribbon Twister’ features a vertical series of wide, colourful ribbons twisting around one another in open curves. At the top is a yellow loop with a warm orange interior. Below it, blue, white and red strips cross one another. The form flows downwards in undulating movements and remains largely open. Against the grey background, the light edges and saturated colours stand out vividly.

The ribbons are not uniformly rounded throughout. Some curves give way to a sharp kink, after which the strip changes direction. A red band winds through the centre, connecting the different coloured areas. Blue interiors and dark shadows lend depth to the openings. The white creates smooth transitions between yellow and red. The alternation of broad areas and narrow, twisted edges makes the spatial composition clearly visible.

This abstract wall decoration suits a modern interior with colourful accents and calm base tones. The long composition can emphasise a narrow wall next to a cupboard or door. In a living room or study, the piece forms a lively focal point. Yellow and blue accessories can complement the larger loops. From a distance, the undulating outline stands out; up close, the kinks, overlapping strips and small shaded areas become visible.
