June 2018
Pieces of Eight is excited to present a diverse new collection of ceramic vessels from Australian design duo, Lyn & Tony. Delicately woven in cotton then covered in an air dried ceramic veneer, these lightweight sculptures question the delicate beauty of nature after being abandoned, then rediscovered by humanity.
"The Accumula collection extends our exploration of forms in nature. From the repetition & accumulation of simple cells, everything grows and evolves into incredible, complex forms. This series is our imagining of vessels abandoned on the seafloor, overtaken by corals, barnacles and the pressure of the deep. Nature covers and accumulates, layer upon layer. Pearlescent and iridescent finishes hint at the nacreous beauty of pearls & seashells."
