BLACKBERRY THICKET - concrete sideboard

Creator: Stefan Buxbaum
Offered by: Marion Friedmann Gallery

Description
MORA / BLACKBERRY THICKET is a new cast concrete sideboard, with blackberry plant relief imprints. Blackberry in Italian is called the Mora. The plants were harvested in spring 2023 and conserved for eternity on the doors of the cabinet. The piece is from a new collection of unique cast concrete cabinets and furniture by the artist Stefan Buxbaum that evoke a surprising sensation in contrast to the softness and sensibility of nature and plant specimens cast onto them.
The cupboards of Stefan Buxbaum - a casting and concrete expert - are technical feats: the corpus is cast in one piece, in a lightweight technique. For his emblematic plant models, the artist applies his chosen specimens and petrifies those paragons of beauty as permanent reliefs onto the surfaces.
We are reminded of the art deco era or Jugendstil, however, in new flesh, projected into the present and the future through the use of this contemporary material concrete. Suitable for outdoors.
