Cristal De La Cruz

sculpture - experimental - nature - printing (3d) - science & technology

The deep sea is a realm of curiosity.

Cristal De La Cruz artwork is completely drawn to the power of the ocean, the mystery of its existence, and the feeling of intangibility, within which there is a relationship between the organisms and their ecosystem. She focuses on the infinitely small, which appears delicate in a complex existence.

Exploring the “morphology” of living and dead organisms and studying the interweaving structures within the ecosystems in which they live. They seek to understand their workings, certain repetitions, interconnections, form, structure, and color, in order to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. She aspire to translate the serene feeling and sense of hopelessness in the face of the infinite and unknown depths of the ocean into sculptures.

Her work spans across various disciplines and layers. Through sculptures, kinetic art, and modern mechanics, they create forms and movements that resemble the natural world.
