Sculpture

I would love to see these works in person. The contrasts are intriguing—the dwarfing of the the room to the sculptures, those to the viewer, and the organic vs. the synthetic material and color. The collection, by Jim Hodges, is currently showing at New York's Gladstone Gallery.

Design distributor Thomas Eyck called upon German RaR artists Beate Reinheimer and Ulrike Rehm to created a limited edition of glazed, porcelain vases. The collection, dubbed “Schwarm,” includes 10 types of beetles, glazed and altered to create an edition of 30 unique wall vases that are simultaneously natural and modern.

Daniel Arsham is an artist hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, (the Cleve!) and living and working between New York and Miami. He designs in a variety of mediums and categorizes his work into two, three or four dimensions. My favorite pieces come from the third dimension, where his sculptural works look simultaneously natural and unnatural, appearing sculpted, grown, or eroded and depend upon their environments for context and dimension.

Dev Harlan, a New York-based multidisciplinary artist, creates sculptures that hover between object and light—physical and ephemeral. His first solo exhibition, Astral Flight Hangar, occupies two floors of the Christopher Henry Gallery (NY) and displays his hybrid video works, combining the physical and virtual through sculpture, light and projection.
