REPRISE : CEILING EXTENDED

REPRISE DANCES BETWEEN RIGOR AND WHIMSY, MODERNITY AND OLD-WORLD SENSIBILITIES. A MOLD-BLOWN GLASS ORB IS SUSPENDED IN MID-AIR BY DELICATELY ARTICULATED BRASS CHAIN AND ROBUST BRASS FORMS HAND-WRAPPED IN TEXTURAL SUEDE AND SMOOTH LEATHER. THE FORMS RECALL THE PERFECTION OF PLASTICITY SO PLAYFULLY CONSIDERED BY DESIGNER JOE COLOMBO, REINTERPRETED BY THE HUMAN HAND IN SAVOIR FAIRE LEATHER CRAFT. THE COMPLEXITY OF REPRISE’S CONSTRUCTION IS BELIED BY ITS PLAYFUL DEFIANCE OF GRAVITY.
