Ane Christensen Shallow Ring

$4,647

Edition of 20
2021
Brass, Gold Plated

The Shallow Ring, from Ane Christensen’s Crumbling collection, provides a sculptural meditation on the contrast between essence and non-essence.

Christensen pierces the solid body of the sculptural artwork with a lattice of voids. Each void is plated in 18-carat gold to stand out from the darkly patinated brass surface.

The artist never pre-emptively designs her artworks. Each piece begins as a flat sheet of metal, which Christensen carves, pierces, smoulders and hand-crafts into the finished form. Ideas discovered in the process of one work are developed in the next, resulting in her collections retrospectively documenting the evolution of her artistic practice.

This limited-edition of 20 is exclusive to Carpenters Workshop Jewellery.
