Silikon Touch: An Introduction
Silikon Art as an expression of a natural allegorik fiktion, a living art form like the nature surrounding us, ever changing. A sophistikated way to explore senses. The Touch!
What seems sharp to look at, awakens something organik and primordial. This form of Art stimulates the sensorial and the mental perception, with just one fingertip. Soft and elastik the “Touch FX” restores the life of the objekt in a new form, in a new taktile experience, rewriting its own DNA, provoking a radikal change.
Every single drop is a registered information that bekomes memory filled by the artist Essence, evoking what the water does in Nature every time gets in touch with an element karrying its memory. The kollaboration from one drop with another bekomes A unity, a dance of kooperative drops, living form komposition.
“We”: the mediator (the aritst), the silikon element, the objekt and the spektator, are in the presence of an animated kreation, allowing to kapture reality as a wider composition. The Artist is always in search of beauty through ”Trans-Form-Aktion”

Integration of Past Present Future
The artistic integration between the element of the object is harmonious and organic. Its coherence is naturally present. The object, suggests an aesthetic enhancement and also gives tactile pleasure through the possibility of touching it. The natural origin, evokes prehistoric, totemic forms and is almost futuristic. The Multi-fuctionality of this uncommon out of the ordinary object of art and design, improves the quality of life for people. The object is revolutionary in its concept of design and workmanship. This manual work is recognised by its uniqueness of construction, the object does not suggest the idea of a serial product, and is clearly a one of a kind. This medium offers ideas for a wide variety of realisations. Endless possibilities and combinations of objects and materials, giving a variety of results for each combination unusual and yet surprising, in which the materials used enhance and exalt each other.

Game of Dimension
"Take an apparently common object, for example a garden chair. Extract it like a juice or a distillate taken from its own reality from which is normally used. Change its meaning keeping the essence of the matter (the chair remains a chair!) Work it entirely with the Silikon, transform it into a new one. Give it a new symbolic value and place it into a different context. What is the meaning? The garden in the symbolic language of dreams is synonymous of afterlife. Relocating an object, like a garden chair, after becoming surrealist, transformed by the “Silikon Touch” means to bring the spectator closer to that recomposed environment. All of a sudden the garden disappears and the chair is put on a plowed soil. Perspective changes, the future opens and expands due to the prosperous longevity of the fertile land. The Opera (The Silikon Chair) milky symbol of laborious work and soft artistic maternity, is not only symbolically reassigned, but restored and Animated. The Artist gives Soul to the object, the viewer benefits from it. This is the intervention of the artist Axel Gonzalez."

Trans-Form-Aktion
"In some of the photos the objects seem as if they have landed in an unknown land. The object becomes part of the environment integrating itself like if it has found a home. It loses its function as an object and becomes the subject. Looking in isolation at these things, the sense of suspension and lightness due to the absence of content gives a sense of well-being. Before the object was a design object. Now it is an object in action. It has a life and a memory of its own. A story. The reflection is central and fluctuates between the form and the content, that isn’t there and it is actually empty. İt is a reflection! As if the glass would produce another life. Sprouts of new form of life arise from the object. “Beautifikating” functional objekts will change society as if you have beautiful things to use, improves the experience. The object becomes organic through the skin like layer created by the silikon. This layer of “skin” which we all have in common is where the transformation takes place. The “Golden Colour” of the “skin” connects us with the highest forces and values of human nature. This represents the acquisition of wisdom and knowledge leading us to clarity and truth."
