"Castor" by ORENDAIN is a work that explores the tension between the dense and the ethereal, evoking cosmic gravity and invisible energy. The black flecks suggest an expanding universe, while the blue flashes add dynamism. The bronze leaf connects the earthly with the celestial, reinforcing the duality between weight and brilliance. Inspired by the star Castor in the Gemini constellation, the piece combines geometry, gestures, and precious metals, creating a symbolic space where the material and the spiritual coexist in balance.

Curatorial Description
In Castor , ORENDAIN explores the tension between the dense and the ethereal, evoking the gravitational pull of celestial bodies and their dialogue with the invisible. The black flecks, with their material character, resemble fragments of an expanding universe, while the vibrant blue flashes suggest sparks of energy in motion. The precisely integrated bronze leaf acts as a luminous resonance that connects the earthly with the cosmic, reinforcing the duality between weight and brilliance.
The title alludes to Castor , one of the twin stars in the Gemini constellation, evoking the dual and fragmented nature of the work: the terrestrial versus the celestial, the dense versus the ethereal. The fine lines in warm tones function as energy vectors that connect these oppositions, tracing a visual map reminiscent of both a scientific diagram and a spiritual gesture.
With this piece, ORENDAIN reaffirms his visual language characterized by the conjunction of geometry, gestural stains and precious metals, creating a symbolic space in which the material and the spiritual coexist in a delicate balance.
