Lukáš Rais
Studied at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague, in the Sculpture studio of Jiří Beránek, prof. Kurt Gebauer and Krištof Kintera. In his works he also uses knowledge gained during the studies of technical subjects: electrical engineering, mechanics as well as various industrial technological principles became the core defining the character of his creative output, where the spectator is invited into a world of "poetic industrialism".
Anuloid
The torus (Anuloid) is a surface of revolution generated by revolving a circle around the axis that lies in the same plane and has no common points, as defined in mathematics. The artificial or sculptural thinking involves a fascination with shapes and their conversion into non-traditional contexts of dimensions and materials. Being installed in an inclined axis, the object disturbs by almost levitating in the space and provokes the imagination by circular framing of a through-view of the surrounding world.
