Not what it seems
Did you see Jeff Koons at The Serpentine Gallery back in 2009? The exhibition looked to be full of amazing giant inflatable beach toys, actually made from cast aluminium then intricately painted. There was a weird shifty atmosphere because every person in there was trying to cop a feel of the art over the ‘do not touch’ signs and the staff was spookily militant. Here are two designers whose work reminds me of that show. First Stephen Jones with his Happy Happy sculptures…
The giant silver gift bows are made out of mirror polished aluminium. They measure 70cm diameter, which is a lot of bow for your wall.
Next, Sapetra. Her Air-box collection is made from porcelain.
If you buy, you can touch.
