Copper, when tempered by fire, transcends its two-dimensional origins to claim a three-dimensional presence through human manipulation. In its finish, the marks of the material's production process are evident and embraced by the designer, free from any artificial patinas or excessive polish.
Through hammering techniques, the copper gains both texture and structure, deformed and voluminous, allowing it to stand independently. It is a monolithic object that occupies spaces that might normally be adorned with sculptures, embodying a candid expression of its own manufacturing - a formal exercise devoid of pretension, yet brimming with artistic integrity.
