Black & White Series - Circle

Redy Rahadian - Painted Steel

Black & White Circle is a sculpture that visualizes unity and duality through the form of a perfect circle. Created from hundreds of Redy Rahadian’s signature small iron human-like figures, each one is interconnected, forming a cohesive whole.

The circle is starkly divided into two contrasting sides, black and white, representing the harmony between life’s dual forces: light and dark, active and passive, masculine and feminine. The black and white colors are not merely opposites, but complementary, reflecting a synergistic concept of duality.

The circle, as a universal symbol of perfection, continuity, and eternity, gains deeper meaning when shaped by human figures illustrating that humanity is an inseparable part of life’s cycles and the balance of the universe.
