METAL MANIFESTO
Daniel Perandres

YO.
Metal is the raw material of industrial dreams, the substance that flows through the fingers of time like liquid mercury. I declare, first and foremost, that metal is not a prisoner of its solid form, but a free spirit yearning to transform.

II.
In the purest act of modern alchemy, we metal artisans reject the tyranny of solidity. Bronze, copper, and brass are nothing more than temporary states of matter, waiting to be liberated from their ancestral rigidity.

III.
The true revolution of metal lies in its capacity for metamorphosis. Just as surrealism freed the mind from its rational chains, we freed metal from its physical chains. We transformed it into liquid skin that embraces any form, any dream, any surface.

III.
We declare that:
Metal knows no limits beyond the imagination
Every surface is a canvas waiting to be metalized
Oxidation is poetry written by time
Patinas are the dreams of metal made visible

V.
We reject the dichotomy between the industrial and the artistic. In our hands, metal is both: the hardness of steel and the softness of mercury; the coldness of iron and the warmth of patinated bronze; it is technology and poetry.

VI.
VeroMetal® is not a simple technique; it's a portal between states of matter, a bridge between solid and liquid, between rigid and fluid, between reality and imagination. It is the embodiment of metal's freedom to be what it has always dreamed of being.

VII.
Our finishes are automatic documents of the material's subconscious. Every texture, every patina, every chemical reaction is a spontaneous confession of the metal revealing its most intimate secrets.

VIII.
Just as the surrealists sought to liberate the unconscious, we unleash the hidden essence of metal. We invite it to flow, to climb the walls, to envelop objects, to whisper its metallic secrets into the most unexpected surfaces.

IX.
The future lies not in solidity but in fluidity. It lies not in permanence but in transformation. Liquid metal is the messenger of this future, and we are its prophets and poets.

X.
This is our commitment to metal: to free it from the constraints of its traditional form, allowing it to dream of new shapes, new textures, new possibilities. In every drop of liquid metal lies a universe of possibilities waiting to be discovered.
