Handcrafted to order in Austria
The piece
A serene island in a sea of tranquility.
Archipelago VIII captures the essence of nature's quiet beauty. It evokes the calm of distant islands, each cluster of moss a symbolic patch in a vast, imagined landscape. The contrasting textures and hues offer a sensory journey: low, deep-forest-green flat moss provides a grounding base, while islands of grass-green Iceland moss and rounded ball-moss cushions rise gently above, creating a harmonious blend of forms.
This artwork is composed of flat moss, grass-green Iceland moss, and ball-moss cushions, each carefully placed by hand. Crafted to order in the Waldart atelier in Graz, Austria, it features natural variations, ensuring that no two pieces are the same.
