The central polygon motif has been sand-shaded for the 3D effect and incorporates several natural veneers including Swiss pear, oak Lacewood, Beech and Sycamore amongst others. It is set in a radial background of American walnut which has been bleached to give a 'firmament' effect and has an outline of pink dyed American Tulip. The piece is 400X500mm and mounted on 15mm board with solid Walnut edges.

From Dusk To Dawn - Sculptural Geometric Abstract Metallic Wood Wall Artwork
By Hugo Urrutia
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Hugo Urrutia’s “From Dusk to Dawn” is a masterful 29-inch high by 38-inch wide sculptural wall artwork, crafted with meticulous precision using oil lacquer paint on carved Baltic birch. Part of his acclaimed “Flexible Rigids” series, this work challenges the boundaries between rigid geometry and fluid motion, transforming a structured surface into a captivating, undulating form. Urrutia’s innovative approach to sculptural abstraction and his ability to evoke natural harmony through architectural precision make this artwork ideal for collectors of modern wall sculptures, geometric art, and unique design-inspired pieces. In “From Dusk to Dawn”, Urrutia builds a mesmerizing composition of repeating triangular modules, meticulously carved to create a dynamic wave-like effect across the surface. The artwork’s deep red gradient transitions from darker tones at the top to vibrant crimson hues at the base, suggesting a natural progression reminiscent of twilight giving way to morning light. The carved facets interact beautifully with light, producing subtle shifts in shadows, reflections, and tones that shift as the viewer changes perspective. The repetitive geometric pattern creates both rhythm and structure, while the gentle curvature of the surface adds an organic flow, echoing Urrutia’s inspiration from natural phenomena like rippling water, wind-blown fabric, or synchronized flocks of birds. The contrast between the bold, rich hues and the natural wood accents further enhances the sculpture’s modern elegance, making it a striking centerpiece for contemporary interiors and architectural spaces. Key Features: Original artwork: Sculptural wall art crafted with carved Baltic birch and oil lacquer paint Dimensions: 29 inches high by 38 inches wide; 5 inches deep Design concept: “Flexible Rigids” series, transforming rigid geometry into flowing, harmonic forms Visual impact: Rich red gradient with natural wood accents and dynamic triangular carvings Display: Signed by the artist on the back; no framing required Certificate of authenticity included with purchase Delivery: Free local Los Angeles area delivery; affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available Hugo Urrutia, a multidisciplinary artist and architect, explores the intersection of art, design, and technology in his sculptural works. Inspired by natural movement and architectural precision, Urrutia’s pieces evoke the beauty of harmony, rhythm, and balance. A graduate of the prestigious Architectural Association in London, Urrutia has exhibited his works worldwide, solidifying his reputation as a visionary artist who redefines the relationship between art and space. “From Dusk to Dawn” is a stunning exploration of geometry, color, and form, seamlessly blending organic flow with architectural structure. Ideal for modern interiors, creative workspaces, or gallery walls, this one-of-a-kind sculpture transforms its environment with a dynamic energy and sophisticated elegance. Collectors seeking art that embodies innovation, movement, and timeless design will find “From Dusk to Dawn” an exceptional addition to their collection.
