The Design

About Cassiopeia Escultura

Cassiopeia é uma escultura em vidro produzida a partir de vidro reciclado e de resíduos industriais. O material teria como destino o aterro sanitário, mas, em vez disso, é fundido e remodelado em uma nova forma. Cada peça é vidro de estúdio soprado à boca, moldado à mão. Superfícies rugosas e orgânicas refletem a estética e a luz escandinavas. Cada cúpula de vidro é levemente iluminada, e as superfícies semelhantes a gelo fundem-se em uma instalação que lembra uma paisagem. A escultura mede 150 por 50 por 30 centímetros. A intenção é uma interpretação poética do contraste entre o material reciclado e o material valioso.
