Product description
A monumental and heavy wooden solid is juxtaposed with a small sheet of mirror, making the object acquire its function. However, due to the scale and proportions, both elements - the frame and the mirror never fully achieve it. With the mirror panel glued to the outside, the function of the frame is deconstructed and the frame becomes useless. Nevertheless, it takes the form of a monumental solid wood block, heavy and unwieldy.
Technique
The object is entirely hand-carved from red oak wood and coated with natural linseed oil. Mirror - hand-cut and hand-sanded.How to use
Clean the wood with a damp cloth, the mirror - with a soft microfibre cloth.- Tags: anna bera, lustro, lustro rzeźbiarskie, mirror, sculpture mirror
As an artist, woodcarver and carpenter, Anna creates wooden furniture pieces, mainly storages and cabinets crafted by hand in limited editions or as one-offs. Her designs refer to forms drawn from the world of nature. The artist focuses on the ways the objects are used, as well as on their ritualistic significance in everyday life. She creates sculptural furniture, the form of which does not reveal the functionality, instead encouraging the users to explore and give them their own meaning. Her works were exhibited in Poland and abroad, including in New York, Milan, Stockholm, and Seoul, as well as in the United Kingdom, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Lithuania, Latvia and Iceland.
