come pesci nell’acqua

Saito implements a careful, mathematical thought, which generates works that are articulated in meticulous associations between solids and voids, in skilful interlocking of one element into another and in precise modular progressions. Working mainly with metals, he also expresses a mimetic ability favoured by his talent in creating optical illusions, which change the work’s appearance according to the observer’s movement, just as it was used to be with Optical Art, from which Saito seems to draw inspiration.
