An accumulation of interlaced candleholders.
The formal geometry and pattern of ornamental
arabesques are discarded in favor of random chaos.
There is no front or back, top or bottom
candles support the holder in any direction it is flipped.
(prototype recently shortlisted for Designboom's 'Beyond Silver' competition)

Each candle holder is individually hand pinched
from soft clay and glazed with bright gold luster,

Here is a recently completed set of replicas for the Biomimicry Guild. They will use these objects to conduct workshops with companies who want to incorporate sustainable design solutions by emulating the results that nature and evolution took millions of years to arrive at. This kit is bound for the Kohler Factory in Wisconsin, and the next one goes to Boeing...
