CORUNICUM IS, IN MANY WAYS, THE QUINTESSENTIAL ARTIST. THE COLLECTIONS EMBODIES THE EXQUISITE TENSION THAT CLIENTS ARE ALWAYS SEEKING, BOTH FOR THEIR GALLERY OR FOR THEIR PERSONAL COLLECTION. THAT TENSION - BETWEEN CLASSICAL FORMS AND CONTEMPORARY INGENUITY, SERENE NATURE AND INNOVATIVE URBANITY, TIMELINESS AND TIMELESSNESS - IS WHAT GIVES CORUNICUM`S WORK A SENSE OF ENIGMATIC COMPLEXITY WITHIN A DECEPTIVELY SIMPLE AESTHETIC INVITING THE VIEWER TO DISCOVER PERSONAL AND MULTIFACETED MEANINGS. IT FEELS FATED, THEN, THAT CORUNICUM`S WORK IS LARGELY ABOUT FOUNDATIONS - THE ELEMENTAL FORMS AND MATERIALS THAT UNDERGIRD THE HISTORY OF HUMANITY AND UPHOLD CONTEMPORARY LIFE

CORUNICUM`S ESSAY OF EXHIBITION IS APTLY AN INVESTIGATION OF ORIGIN OF THINGS. IT COMPRISES TWO SERIES OF WORKS THAT EPITOMIZE THE ARTIST'S VALUES AND VISION: ROOTED IN SIMPLICITY, CRAFTSMANSHIP, AND THE USE OF NOBLE MATERIALS, THEY ARE MEDITATIVE AND PLAYFUL EXPLORATIONS OF INTIMACY AND MONUMENTALITY. WITH A BOLD SCULPTURAL VOCABULARY, CORUNICUM BRINGS US TO THE DEEPEST PARTS OF OUR SOUL AND THE BEDROCK OF OUR HUMANITY

THE FIRST SERIES, “GENIUS77”, IS AN ODE TO THE POWER OF NATURE AND TO THE SCULPTURAL SOUL OF THE FOREST. WITH PRIMORDIAL FORMS, THE ARTIST RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DUALITY OF MONUMENTALITY AND ABSENCE. CORUNICUM SEEKS TO CREATE AN ABYSS IN THE BEATING HEART OF THE METROPOLIS, INVITING CONTEMPLATION ON THE FRAGILITY OF NATURE IN AN EVER - INNOVATING WORLD. THE WORKS ASK US TO CONSIDER THE PRECARIOUSNESS OF OUR NATURAL RESOURCES AND HOW WE MIGHT LEARN TO TREASURE THE EARTH'S SIMPLE GIFTS

THE SECOND SERIES, “5 GRACES”, IS A COMPLIMENTARY MUSING ON THE MEANING OF PLACE. AGAIN PLAYING WITH SCALE, CORUNICUM PONDERS HOW CERTAIN PLACES CAN TAKE ON EXTRAORDINARY SIGNIFICANCE IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF OUR PERSONAL AND COLLECTIVE IDENTITIES. HE ASKS QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT PLACES CAN HOLD FOR US, HOW EVEN THE MOST PUBLIC SPACES CAN BECOME EMBLEMS OF OUR MOST INTIMATE THOUGHTS. COMPRISING SEVEN PRECIOUS CASES WITH DELICATE AND MONOLITHIC CHARACTERS, THE SERIES CONSIDERS HOW WE PROTECT WHAT IS MOST DEAR TO US AND CONSTRUCT PERSONAL TEMPLES TO SAFEGUARD WHAT IS MOST ESSENTIAL

A PLAY OF CONCEALMENT AND REVELATION, THE SCENERY IS BRILLIANT FOR ITS DECEPTIVE SIMPLICITY AND HAUNTING LYRICISM. ALLOWING CORUNICUM`S WORKS TO TAKE CENTER STAGE AND CREATING A THRILLING SENSE OF ANTICIPATION, AS IF THE CURTAIN WERE ABOUT TO RISE. A DRAMATIC YET SUBTLE LIGHTING DESIGN FOCUSES OUR ATTENTION ON CORUNICUM`S WORKS, GUIDING THE EYE TO DELVE INTO THE RICH NARRATIVE THAT EACH WORK OFFERS WITHOUT DISTRACTION

WITH THE WINDOWS UNCOVERED, PASSERSBY CAN PEER INSIDE, MARVELING AT PARTIALLY OBSCURED SPLENDOR, IMAGINING THE LAVISH LIVES AND SUMPTUOUS PARTIES THAT MIGHT RESUME AT ANY MOMENT THAT TRANSPARENCY REFLECTS SOMETHING ABOUT THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF CITY LIFE; GRAND ARCHITECTURE AND GREAT ART ARE THERE FOR ALL TO SEE, IF ONLY WE TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK. AT THE SAME, THIS OPENNESS BECOMES A DIAlOGUE WITH THE HONESTY AND AUTHENTICITY OF THE CORUNICUM`S WORKS - THEY HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE, BUT BECKON US CLOSER TO SEE THE ABSOLUTE INTEGRITY OF THEIR CRAFTSMANSHIP AND VISION

IN THE TENSION OF THESE IDEAS - THE PUBLIC AND THE PRIVATE, THE OPULENT AND THE SIMPLE, THE NOSTALGIC AND THE CONTEMPORARY - CORUNICUM REVEALS HIS POETIC SOUL. IT IS THROUGH THAT HUMBLE ACT OF REVELATION THROUGH CONCEALMENT THAT WE ARE ALL ABLE TO TRULY SEE THE SUBLIME SIMPLICITY Of CORUNICUM`S EXQUISITE MIND, SPIRIT, AND HAND
