Les tables Ostentus et Hercules en grès et chêne massif par Alan Louis. Pièces uniques signées et réalisées à la main.

THE TABLES & THE PEDESTAL TABLES

"THE TABLE, THAT FABULOUS OBJECT ON WHICH WE PLACE EVERYTHING. OUR JOYS, OUR SORROWS, A BUNCH OF KEYS, OUR FLATTENED HANDS AND OUR BIG DECISIONS, A BLANK SHEET, A COFFEE AND THE BOTTOM OF OUR POCKETS. OUR LATEST NOVEL SURROUNDED BY OUR TWO ELBOWS, WHICH IT SUPPORTS WHEN BOREDOM ARISES. WE LAY DOWN SOME LAUGHTER AND ARM WRESTLING ON IT. A BURNING CANDLE,
A GLASS OF WINE, PENCILS AND LETTERS... 
AND EVEN OUR LOVE."

The tables ands pedestal tables are ceramic, handmade from chamotte sandstone (containing grains of sand). The clay is fired between two and three times at temperatures of between 900 and 1400 degrees. During this process, the object becomes as solid as stone. It is through assembly, modelling, sculpting and the various firings that the object reveals itself. Clay is a material that is almost 'alive' because of its movements between drying and firing. Each piece is unique. The curves are irregular and imperfect, and the dimensions may vary slightly.

 

The tables and pedestal tables are numbered and signed, and made to order within 8 to 14 weeks.
