With this “monochrome exercise” Rodolfo Agrella designs an effusive homage to the ever-moving source of energy: the ocean.  

The piece is composed by a continuum of sensitized cut-out surfaces, masterfully connected by color planes that mutate with the spectator’s walk and Miami’s sun incidence across the almost 600 square feet of surface extension. Bold shapes that overlap and fold on top of walls and ceilings, as waves that conquer the shore, are depicted with a strict monochromatic palette, used to enhance the shadows and volumes plays, while expressing multiple transparencies with the lush and dynamism that distinguish the Tropics and Agrella’s work.
