Cycloïd Piazza is described as an invitation to 're-experiment with these curves, studied in classical mechanics, through the practice and spectacle of skateboarding.' It offers a fusion of artistic expression and athletic performance.
Raphael Zarka, a lifelong skateboarder, highlights skateboarding's impact on spatial perception, saying, 'Skateboarding has the particular ability to indelibly mark the way you apprehend shapes and spaces.' The sculpture is designed as a piazza within a piazza, creating a dynamic environment.
Cycloïd Piazza, created in partnership with Nike, signifies the intersection of sport, art, and community. By being open to the public until 2024, it offers a unique venue for skateboarders and art enthusiasts alike.
