Loose Control is a sculptural series by Mircea Anghel forged through acts of deliberate surrender. Working with copper and metal sheets, Anghel uses controlled explosions—often with dynamite—to shape the material, allowing force and unpredictability to become co-authors of each piece. The resulting forms are bent, ruptured, and warped by impact, capturing a frozen instant of chaos. In Loose Control, destruction becomes creation, and the raw energy of the process is embedded in every surface. It is a meditation on relinquishing authorship, trusting the unknown, and finding form within rupture.

About the artist
Born in Romania in 1986, Mircea Anghel is a self-taught designer based in Portugal and the founder of Cabana Studio. From a young age, growing up in Bucharest, he displayed a particular interest in mathematics and always found pleasure in problem-solving. The son of a diplomat, Anghel moved to Lisbon in 2001, where he studied economics at the University of Lisbon, before embarking on a career in finance. During those years, he developed a keen interest in woodworking, to which he devoted himself while not at work. His passion soon turned into a full-time occupation, and after resigning from his position at a hedge fund, he established his own design practice, Cabana Studio, in 2015.
