THE
FORAGERS
/
In search of the purest expression of nature, foragers roam gripped by a sense of mystery and the promise of the non-pareil. They tread lightly directed by their heightened sensory perceptions seeking the supremely rare and a tantalizing glimpse of precious forms, vibrant in colour and exquisitely shaped. Fuelled by passion, they daringly take on the long arduous journey, reserved for the highly-skilled, savvy aesthetes who are equipped with years of knowledge, experience and resilience. Before long, hidden treasures are revealed on an unexpected bypath, gleaming against a mystical natural backdrop cloaked in autumnal finery. Gold chains, brass leaves and lustrous shells cast a magical aura and lure the foragers seductively. Drawn by the present captivating beauty, they use the tools solely made for their quest to carefully harvest with the utmost respect the delicate glistening shapes the majestic nature created.
DESCRIPTION
/
Capturing the spell and beauty of a suspended moment in time is a quiet breathtaking proposition that lures like an enchanting waltz and entices with a magical pull. Defiant yet discreet, this artwork with its subtle idiosyncrasies alludes to the sensuous shapes of nature yet embraces the sharp opulence of jewellery. Part of a limited-edition collection of 16 unique pieces, each striking installation boasts hundreds of brass fibre leaves hanging from a handwoven net of golden chains, warmly lit by translucent hand-blown glass fruitage and 24K goldplated adornments. Expert artisans work meticulously and minutely for more than 120 hours on each piece. Handcrafted from precious materials and hand-assembled with great care and precision, each sculptural work is fitted with a light featuring a warm candle-like kelvin degree.
