ARCO

2022

 

​

Comprising six containers, two trays and three hangers, the Arco Collection has as a main element the cast metal arcs. The molds for these pieces were manually sculpted out of wood, carrying a texture that grants an organic irregularity to these objects.

 

Due to the manual process, there are subtle variations from piece to piece on their surfaces. In the foundry, each time molten metal is poured into the mold, a new piece materializes with ever so slight differences between one another, carrying its own “scars” of the process.
