Where Sculpture Meets Light, artist Katrien Van Der Schueren unveils her new lightng collections
Artist Katrien Van Der Schueren unveils a new lighting collection that extends her sculptural practice into illumination, where light becomes both material and medium. Conceived as functional sculptures, each piece is hand-formed in concrete without molds, a labor-intensive process that ensures no two works are ever identical. Guided by touch and intuition, subtle variations give rise to singular forms with a distinctly one-of-a-kind presence.
Finished with a cold-applied liquid metal surface, the works carry the depth and tactile quality of metal while allowing for the fluid, organic movement that defines her practice and positions her as a sculptor whose work brings light into the world.
