Statement
Millé's work comprises a unique three-dimensional proposal where colorful visuals and voids convey.
The artist defines his work as a phenomenology of space based on the
conception of three-dimensionality as a dynamic condition through inflection,
expansion and tension, where the exhibition space becomes the artwork. Fragile elastic lines form a variety of visuals arranged in different orientations from floor to ceiling following a powerful and rigorous geometric order. Carved volumes are expanded while the elements separate from the body of the piece to intensify contrast among voids.
