COMPLETEDWORKS from Holt Renfrew | x Ekaterina Bazhenova Yamasaki Object 10 Goliath Vase
$535 CAD
The Fold collection is a comment on memory, society, consumerism and a host of other massive topics. Dramatic silhouettes flow elegantly and effortlessly in a series of pieces that present creases, pleats, ruffles, and layered folds and explore the essences of texture and shape. Goliath has been crafted as part of a collaboration with the artist Ekaterina Bazhenova Yamasaki. The piece has been designed to fold and unfold in a theatrical manner – tracing elements of choreography while engaging with chance and serendipity. Ekaterina used a series of presses, dents and imperfections to both give the vessel a sense of movement and to create something that when viewed from each angle is different.
