Bronze Fruit Bowl
This project was created for a design collaboration called “The Farm Shop” while working with Theodóra Alfreðsdóttir. We were tasked with creating a piece for a dinner party, in which every item used was created by different designers and available for purchase.
The form of the bowl was molded from clay sheets draped over a series of half-spheres. This allowed the weight of the clay and gravity to form natural highs and lows to nestle fruit into.
With bronze as our material, we wanted to move away from the pristine and polished look of most bronze products. We decided to only slightly finish the bronze after casting, embodying the raw atmosphere of the theme.
Throughout this project I was heavily involved in the entire ideation and experimentation process. I then assisted in the creation of the final molds to be sent off and cast in bronze.
