Name of Work: Balance Vase

Copper, blue patina / 72”w x 24”d x 36”h

About the Work:
This piece, which I plan to eventually fabricate physically, is a large-scale version of my copper, patinated Balance Vase. For this year’s virtual show I collaborated with my friend and fellow designer Samuel Walther-Battista to create renderings that position the vessels in both domestic and exterior landscapes. With this new digital platform I was able to dream a little bigger, and to imagine my vases in larger contexts. These renderings explore how scale and environment inform our perception of the vessels.
