Carved by the master artisans in Northern Italy, Hansen’s ”Biomorphic Sconce” draws inspiration from a second-century Roman sculpture of the human body the artist had come across i n the Greek and Roman galleries at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2007. This piece is part of a series of functional sculptures and lights that touch upon the question of captivity and freedom, evoking abstract silhouettes of human bodies revealed and freed from the stone block by the stone carver. Made in Italy in partnership with Extravega Milano Exclusively presented by Les Ateliers Courbet in New York & Paris Show more
