AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Suspended Hierarchy
Suspended Hierarchy suggests that every structure of order is, at its core, an illusory balance sustained by invisible tensions. The forms descend like interconnected thoughts, where each level exists only in relation to the next. Gravity acts not only as a physical force but also as a metaphor for the rules, expectations, and systems that shape our own existence.
The work invites the viewer to question whether order is truly a stable truth or merely a moment suspended before transformation. Each element appears dependent on the one before it, revealing the hidden fragility behind what we perceive as solid, permanent, or inevitable.
This sculpture marks a new direction in my artistic practice, where Brutalist aesthetics meet the expressive energy of Pop Art. While the work remains rooted in material honesty and the structural strength of Brutalism, it introduces a more contemporary, bold, and emotional visual language. Color is no longer a simple finish but a statement in itself—a transition from the silent to the expressive.
The piece reflects an evolution in my work, moving from monochromatic industrial sculptures toward a more dynamic and direct artistic vocabulary, where geometry retains its rigor while meaning becomes more human, immediate, and open to interpretation.
This sculpture is part of an open series. Every detail of this sculpture has been carefully cut and handcrafted.
Dimensions: 47 × 16 × 16 cm
Material: Iron
Finished in a blend of pink and orange salmon colors
Artist Information
Education: Self-taught artist.
Exhibitions: I develop my artistic practice independently.
Awards: I have not received any official awards.
Residencies: I have not participated in any artistic residencies.
My work focuses on creating unique pieces that exist between sculpture and functional object, exploring the relationship between materiality, structure, and permanence. I create sculptural furniture and contemporary sculptures in concrete and iron, combining function and form with a strong Brutalist influence. Through geometry, repetition, and visual balance, my works investigate how objects occupy and transform space.
Packaging and Shipping
The artwork will be carefully packaged using appropriate protective materials to ensure its safe transportation.
Respect for the artist’s work and for the platform helps maintain a fair and meaningful experience for both buyers and sellers.
Certificate of Authenticity
The sculpture will be shipped with a signed Certificate of Authenticity issued by the artist.
Seller's Story
Wallavibe – D.B is an independent sculptural workshop where brutalism, geometry, and industrial memory are transformed into contemporary functional art.
I grew up in an environment where concrete walls were thicker than words, and objects were created not for beauty, but for durability. The images of my childhood — grey housing blocks, massive furniture, rough surfaces, iron, wood, and concrete — left a deep mark on the way I think and create. It was a world where form always followed function, and aesthetics emerged from necessity rather than excess.
These memories and experiences became the foundation of my work. The brutalist tables and sculptures I create today are both a direct response to that past and a dialogue with the present. I am inspired by monumentality, weight, exposed structure, and honest materials. I do not try to hide or soften them; instead, I allow them to speak for themselves.
My works are an act of resistance against fast consumption. They are not created for temporary trends or seasonal tastes, but for permanence. These are objects that demand presence, time, and a relationship with the person who lives with them. They are made not to be replaced, but to remain — to age together with the space and the individual.
Each piece exists at the boundary between furniture and sculpture, between function and silence. They are solid objects — sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes provocative — inviting the viewer to pause and feel the weight, texture, and history of the material.
My work explores the relationship between memory, matter, and permanence in an increasingly accelerated world.
