APOLLONIUS, ANOE MELLIOU2025, OPEN EDITIONPOLISHED FERRETIC STAINLESS STEEL, MAGNET DETAIL45 x 17.5 x H 15 cm | Ø 0.6 cm x H 30 cm A homage to Apollonius of Perga, an ancient Greek mathematician whose studies of conic sections framed the understanding of curves as a language of geometry and latent motion. Designed to rest in perfect equilibrium, while performing the minimum required, the composition is held together by attraction. A concealed magnet draws the ferritic edge of the curved plane towards it — they touch, assembled only by proximity. The object remains whole because the conditions allow it. Magnetically linked, the modules engage through attraction, resisting permanence.Exhibited at:Contrasts, Maison Navie, Seoul, April 2026Forma Gallery, Berlin, March 2026Harper's Bazaar, Women of the Year, Amsterdam, November 2025 Featured at:Nasty Magazine, February 2026OPEN EDITIONHANDCRAFTED AND ASSEMBLED IN BERLIN, GERMANYLEAD PRODUCTION TIME: 1 WEEKWORLDWIDE SHIPPING Show more
