Maillage pendant at
@lovehouseny
Playing with dualities of heft and lightness, infinity and constraint, the sculptural pendant is set in a state of anticipatory suspension. The light hovers unnaturally low to the ground, allowing viewers to experience each link’s inherent senses of tension up close.
The attenuated, multi-component forms are intentionally elongated to create a continuous-feeling presence in vertically-vacant interior spaces.
Thus the chain, often used for constraint, now offers a counterintuitive sensation of lightness.
Each link, a complete sculptural form in itself, is used as a rotating component to reflect a soft, diffused light, satisfying a harmonious, formal alignment.
Named after the French term maillage, describing interlocking units forming a coherent structure, similar to a mesh while related to chain mail.
