Product description

TORSION I is a monumental, human-scale sculpture defined by a continuous vertical twist carved from a single block of black marble. The form explores tension, balance, and controlled movement—appearing fluid despite its mass.

Designed as a statement piece for double-height lobbies, private villas, galleries, and corporate spaces, the sculpture commands presence while maintaining refined restraint. The polished surface captures ambient light and architectural reflections, emphasizing the stone’s depth and natural veining.

Each sculpture is entirely unique, shaped by both design intent and the inherent character of the stone.
