in june I took a trip to carrara to work on my first sculptural work. I also took the opportunity and invitation to drive 1000m up the face of the mountain. it was another world. what was born here was the first iteration of ‘Ekstasis’. black lava rock sourced in southern italy, with gold dipped bronze and matte black symbolic details, balancing precariously on a point. the edition of eleven launches tomorrow with @avant.arte Ekstasis — Ecstasy (from the Ancient Greek ἔκστασις ekstasis, "to be or stand outside oneself, a removal to elsewhere”, from ek- "out, outside, or beyond,” and stasis, "a stand, to be stationary, or a standoff of forces”.
