The sculpture "Hobby Bike" by Fabian Delberghe is a unique piece that combines symbolism, aesthetics, and eco-responsibility. Inspired by the bicycle, an emblematic mode of transportation in Bordeaux—a city renowned for its extensive network of cycling paths—this artwork celebrates sustainable mobility. With its impressive dimensions of 168x169x45 cm, "Hobby Bike" commands attention with its bold geometric shape and striking contrast between gold and black.
Fabian Delberghe, an artist known for his innovative and committed creations, uses the bicycle here as a symbol of freedom, movement, and sustainability. Sculpted with remarkable precision, the golden bicycle form appears to float in the center of a black diamond-shaped frame, creating an illusion of lightness and suspension. This contrast between the golden metal and the depth of black gives the sculpture an elegant yet mysterious character, capturing light and inviting the viewer into a play of reflections.
Through "Hobby Bike," Delberghe pays homage to the cycling culture that defines Bordeaux, a pioneering city in France for cycling infrastructure. With more than 1,200 kilometers of dedicated bike paths, Bordeaux embodies the ideal of eco-responsible urban mobility. By integrating the shape of a bicycle into a work of art, Delberghe celebrates not only the aesthetic of this mode of transport but also the ecological values it represents.
The use of gold leaf in this piece elevates the bicycle, often seen as a simple and functional mode of transport, to the level of fine art. Here, the bicycle becomes a true artwork, a symbol of sustainability and modernity. Through the use of high-quality materials, Fabian Delberghe enhances the concept of green mobility, reminding the viewer of the importance of living harmoniously with our environment.
Available for online purchase, "Hobby Bike" is a choice piece for contemporary art lovers and collectors looking to add a symbolic and aesthetic dimension to their space. This unique sculpture stands out for its elegance and committed message, embodying the spirit of an era where art and eco-responsibility converge. For those seeking an artwork that combines beauty, modernity, and environmental consciousness, "Hobby Bike" is a valuable addition.
