Each piece expands from that origin, stretching and opening into new configurations that suggest growth, pressure and release. Presented in sequence, the works look almost like frames from a film, tracing a gradual shift from compact simplicity to more complex, articulated forms.</p>\n<p>The series reflects Jiménez&#8217;s concept of “Transmutative Symbolism,” where matter is never fixed but constantly evolving through time and space. Smooth, polished surfaces split or fold to reveal a living figure within, linking physical transformation to ideas of life, origin and consciousness.</p>\n<p>These ideas are closely tied to his background. Born in Costa Rica and later shaped by his time in Italy, his work combines pre-Columbian influences, particularly the ancient stone spheres of the Boruca culture, with Renaissance thought and European sculptural traditions. In <em>Genesis</em>, that dialogue becomes clear. The sphere is both artifact and concept, a symbol of cultural memory and a framework for exploring how form, identity and existence continue to evolve.</p>\n<p><a
