Abacus Screen, USA

Creator: Christopher Russell
Offered by: Todd Merrill Studio

Description
In a career spanning over 30 years, New York City artist Christopher Russell has devoted himself to creating unique works of art, functional design, custom architectural elements, and large-scale commissions in an ever-expanding exploration of clay, his principal medium. Originally focused on painting and drawing, Russell was attracted to the malleable properties and endless possibilities of clay, which can traverse the divide between functional and purely aesthetic. Russell affirms that “Texture is the most visceral element in ceramics. It’s the thing that makes you want to touch. There’s design, color and form, but it’s texture that gives a piece its physical life. Russell’s Abacus Screen, his latest work, blends functionality with aestheics into a dynamic work that can be used as an architetural divider or simply a standing sculpture. As the artist works by commission, the Abacus Screen can be customized in size and color to accommodate a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces.
