The Pacific Collection by designer Kelly Wearstler embodies a deep connection with surfing, showcasing sculptural pieces that reflect personal and communal ties to the ocean. Crafted with a proprietary technique, the collection celebrates the art of surfboard making, with pieces like the Pacific Surfboards and Pacific Credenza serving as both functional items and artistic statements. Each piece is designed to convey the spiritual essence of surfing, blending practical design with an appreciation for California's coastal heritage and the unique beauty of the Pacific Ocean.
The Pacific Collection stands out as a sculptural tribute to the rituals that bind people and place, drawing deeply from Wearstler's family's shared love for surfing.
Each object is hand-shaped to expose fluid birch layers, with every grain pattern one-of-a-kind like the waves at dawn.
The process of making surfboards creates a special bond between the shaper, the surfer, and the board itself, reflecting a communion with the earth.
Wearstler reveals that her entire family are surfers, emphasizing the sport's significance to their identity and the inspiration it provides for her work.
