Made exclusively for Love House featuring african wenge wood with a waxed finish. *Made to Order - Other materials available ABOUT THE ARTIST:At once rooted in tradition and embracing of new design languages, Studio ANANSI explores the beauty of blackness through collectible objects that deftly harmonize simplistic form and complex tactility. Debuting with a cohesive collection of bowls, platters, vessels, planters and astool, Studio ANANSI presents a unique perspective on the history of black culture and craftsmanship. Meeting at the intersection of art and design, each piece is made from wood – chosen for its tactile and yielding nature – and revisits traditional craft in a thoroughly modern way. After being hand-turned, the sculpted objects undergo a specialized burning process that results in an appearance that manages to be both fluid and static, and one that intentionally conveys the struggles, events, love, loss, pain, suffering and – above all – beauty that the black body endures.“This collection is the first in a series intended to explore countlessexpressions of African diaspora and blackness through functional artobjects. Their simple forms are rooted in African art, reimaginedthrough a process that results in a textured, sculptural and vulnerablebeauty that represents a visual narrative currently underrepresented inthe world of design.”- Evan Jerry, Studio ANANSI MAKER Studio AnansiDIMENSIONS 5.75"D x 6.25"HORIGIN United Kingdom *Price does not reflect shipping cost, please email [email protected] for a quote
