Our world is cluttered with stuff, how would the world look like a few thousand years from now?
Overgrown is a series of chandeliers and candelabra that appear to be relics from that desolate flooded world where the influence of time is key.
A theme that’s intertwined with Sturkenboom’s oeuvre.
Atelier Mark Sturkenboom designed a fluid, based on minerals, which allows objects to grow crystals over a period of time.
He reclaimed antique French chandeliers and candelabra and created the perfect conditions to set a hyper-evolution in motion where every object grows out to be a unique piece, a modern interpretation of a crystal chandelier. These pieces are part of Sturkenboom’s ongoing fascination of the influence that hyper-deterioration has on modern life, glimpsing in the future.
It is also possible for us to transform museum pieces, inheritance pieces or special objects to your liking. Feel free to contact us to discuss the possibilities.
