COIL

ARCO Art Fair, Madrid, Spain

Coil is a monumental kinetic sculpture by Spanish artist Daniel Canogar, renowned for his work with light, media and immersive installations. Composed of a spiralling ribbon of LED panels, the piece creates a dynamic and luminous structure that appears to float in space.

As Coil slowly twists and shifts, waves of light travel along its surface, suggesting a visual memory in motion. The spiral becomes a metaphor for time—continuous, fluid, and cyclical—while also referencing technological systems and digital flow.

This work exemplifies Canogar’s ability to translate complex ideas into sculptural form. The interplay of technology and perception turns the sculpture into a living presence, engaging viewers in a meditative and ever-changing visual experience.

With Coil, Canogar continues his exploration of the ephemeral in the digital age, using light not only as material, but as narrative. The result is a striking fusion of architecture, data, and emotion.
