The Metal Snake is the creative studio of artist Luca De-Andrad Odgers, working across sculpture, design and contemporary visual culture. The studio explores the relationship between form, space and imagination, creating distinctive works that challenge expectations and invite audiences to encounter familiar environments in unexpected ways.

Luca’s practice is driven by an experimental and highly visual approach to making. Rather than being confined to a single medium or discipline, The Metal Snake moves between artistic and design processes, allowing ideas to determine the form and material of each work.

A strong sense of play and curiosity runs through the studio’s work. Objects and sculptural forms are often designed to provoke a reaction — whether through their scale, character, unexpected placement or relationship to the surrounding space. There is an emphasis on creating work that can be experienced rather than simply observed.

The Metal Snake also reflects an interest in contemporary visual culture, where art, design and everyday environments increasingly overlap. Luca’s works can operate as standalone sculptural pieces while also responding directly to the spaces in which they are presented.

Through an evolving practice, The Metal Snake continues to explore how sculpture can create moments of surprise, connection and discovery. The studio’s work ultimately invites viewers to look twice, question what they see and approach space with a renewed sense of curiosity.
