Rock’n’Roll – Panels (1998)

This cycle was conceived to transform the mezzanine balustrade of a private residence into a continuous visual narrative. It consists of eleven diamond-shaped panels constructed from two or three layered plywood silhouettes. The relief structures create small scenes dedicated to rock’n’roll dance and the vitality of 1950s American music.

The color palette is restricted to black and white, referencing early vinyl graphics, photography, and film imagery of the period. Stylized figures and dynamic compositions evoke rapid dance movements and the atmosphere of dance halls, drawing inspiration from iconic songs such as Jailhouse Rock, Heartbreak Hotel, See You Later Alligator, Sweet Little Sixteen, and other well-known titles.

The cycle functions as a structured tribute to the music of Elvis Presley and to the broader cultural momentum associated with postwar rock’n’roll.
