No vase
2020 / Stainless Steel, brass, copper / Project assistant: Lucas Elizondo
What if we enhance a flower disappearing its vase?
This project contrasts the emptiness of an almost non existent element and the beauty of a flower standing perfectly without effort.
The nothingness of the vase creates a subtle cantilever effect where the flower is the main visible element that seems to float in the space. This unconventional way to present a flower is inspired by nature, where the flower emerges naturally from the soil.
The collection comprises three vases produced with different existing bars: a brass hexagonal bar, a copper rectangular bar and a stainless steel round bar. Each vase has two metal pieces that fit perfectly; the inferior piece has a small container that is filled with water and the superior one has a top orifice where the pedicel of the flower is inserted.
