Joaquim Ingravidesa
Arrel - 21st Century, Contemporary, Abstract Sculpture, Mahogany Wood, Roots

2019

About the Item

Mahogany roots with gold leaf The Ingravidesa Sculpture Alliance is formed by an international group of sculptors and designers who collaborate to create abstract sculpture inspired by nature. They often work together for months on monumental projects. The pieces are the result of collaborations where each artist and craftsman are invited to assist in the creation of these sculptures. Their mahogany and teak root sculptures often incorporate 18 carat gold or silver patterned layers. The wood is sustainable sourced and is primarily the roots of old trees, originally used in the timber industry. Fascinated by the traditional carving techniques used in Java and Malaysia, they apply this ancient knowledge to create contemporary abstract sculpture that celebrates a stunning blend of noble metals and organic forms. The artists divide their time between Asia and Europe, sourcing the wood in Malaysia and Indonesia, where they prepare the sculptures, before adding the finishing touches in the Ingravidesa studio in Catalonia.

  • Abstract Golden Tree Formations - 3d sculpture for walls
    By Arozarena De La Fuente
    Located in Mexico City, MX
    This elegant art work is inspired in Dendrochronology. New growth in trees occurs in a layer of cells near the bark. A tree's growth rate changes in a predictable pattern throughout the year in response to seasonal climate changes, resulting in visible growth rings. Each ring marks a complete cycle of seasons, or one year, in the tree's life. This changing patterns are what inspired the artist in doing this 3d sculpture...

  • "RAKU RED AND WHITE", wheel formed white glaze, copper red, gold leaf, sculpture
    By Andrew Cornell Robinson
    Located in Toronto, Ontario
    "RAKU RED AND WHITE", 2019, in wheel-formed white glaze with copper red blush, sprig, stamp, gold leaf and raku fired with kintsuji gold by artist Andrew Cornell Robinson, is one of a series of sculptural objects that include ceramic, glass and mixed media grottoes and containers. A project exploring the vessel form and notions of gratitude, plenty, poverty in material or humanity. Robinson has led artists to explore tableware as sculptural form – "Changing attitudes and emerging social behaviors in food preparation and the social and cultural rituals of eating have lead to changes in the way tableware is made and used." Andrew Cornell Robinson is an interdisciplinary artist working across media (ceramics, textiles, painting, prints, etc.). His work is influenced by collaborative craft communities, traditions, and the performative qualities of cultural production. The underlying ideas exploring identity, histories, rituals, and power in his work aim to create a space for intimate experiences and open narratives. He studied ceramic sculpture at the Glasgow School of Art and the Maryland Institute College of Art where he received a BFA. He was awarded an MFA from the School of Visual Arts, where he became interested in the intersection of memory, identity, politics, and power. He has been featured in many publications including Sculpture Magazine, Huffington Post, Hyperallergic, Art Info, et al. He has participated in curatorial and research projects and recently was a participating artist in Debtfair a project in the Whitney Biennial. Andrew has also worked on collaborations with designers such as Donna Karan’s Urban Zen project where his work in ceramics led to workshops with artisans in Haiti and the creation of a ceramic studio in Port-au-Prince. He is currently working with The Powerhouse Arts Workshop and their design team from the Pritzker-prize winning architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron in the design and development of a contemporary industrial fabrication center established to serve the working needs of artists in New York City. He is currently a member of the faculty at Parsons School of Design and Greenwich House Pottery in New York City. His work has been presented extensively throughout the world with the Anna Kustera Gallery, David & Schweitzer Contemporary, Christopher Stout...
