Quiet, luminous, and impossible to look away from — this piece captures the stillness of a full moon on a clear night.
The round moon-like disc began as the platform of a candle holder, transformed with heat into a deep blue-rust patina. Along the stem, leaves salvaged from two separate pieces of wall art bring different tones, textures, and etched details to the composition.
Everything is welded to a textured diamond-plate steel base, giving the delicate form an unmistakably industrial foundation.
Nothing here was bought new. Everything was saved, transformed, and made permanent.
Priced to find a home, not a warehouse.
