Sculptures with an abstract line that have the same aim as architecture: to be an expression of the relationship between man and his environment, giving the place its own entity, lending it essence and conferring it a specific character. The work is an interpretation of the architecture of the Aldaia Municipal Market, situated in the Plaza de Europa, using industrial materials, in this case, iron. The integration of the two sculptures in the square obeys a conception of a sculptural environment. The use of modular forms and the interest in an abstract form give the work this architectural aspect (the sculpture represents architecture). The Kilates Artistic Group uses architectural images (semicircular forms and polygonal structures) to achieve a character of unity between the sculpture and its surroundings. The work also represents an anthropological symbiosis with the landscaped and play areas of the square as a meeting place and civic nucleus. Artist: Grupo Artístico Kilates Kilates Artistic Group is made up of the visual artists Marta Bilbao Castillo, Pedro Camachón Ríos, Miguel Ángel Guillerma and Javier Moral Martín. One of them, Javier Moral Martín, holds a doctorate in Audiovisual Communication and is currently a doctoral assistant lecturer at the Universitat Politècnica de València.
