Atelier V&F
Nature carves and shapes the environment without purposes, and human intervenes with tools and techniques with the human gift- aesthetics. The collection of“Geology” is our reflection and exploration on the synchrony of nature’s work and human intervention.
Using the molding technique, the touch of time and hand is reserved in the surface of the works in this collection, giving them the uniqueness that transcends industrial products, and granting them with the liveliness of sculpture.
“Geology- candle holder” is inspired by a stone waste that has been water jet cutted. As the water jet cutter reaches the thick spot, it falters for lack of pressure, leaving waves on the surface, giving the hard rock a flowing texture, like freezed ripples. The end result of an instant of the powerful water jet cutter’s work assimilates the thousands of years of weathering, reminding us the strength of time.
We created an artificial weathering effect on the surface and a natural curve that resembles Chinese calligraphy, with strength and softness. Expanded upward from the curved base, the candle holder reaches a perfect state of balance that is dynamic like the western sculpture and steady like the eastern pine trees.
