Delphine Grandvaux
"Iris", Black Metal Hand-Woven Flower Pendant Aerial Sculpture

2024

About the Item

Titled "Iris," this aerial sculpture by Delphine Grandvaux is meticulously hand-woven from lacquered black metallic wire, showcasing a masterful control over mesh size that dynamically corresponds to the sculpture’s volume. As the volume narrows, the mesh tightens, and as it broadens, the mesh expands, creating an organic sense of growth reminiscent of the iris flower it is named after. It seems to beckon observers to immerse themselves in the rhythm of a plant's breath throughout its growth. The sculpture elegantly blooms before tapering into a slender stem. This piece is to be suspended from the ceiling. Delphine Grandvaux, French sculptor, is driven by her aspiration to craft artworks that convey lightness and airiness. She has developed a unique artistic method, echoing the meshing techniques of Ruth Asawa. Grandvaux's creations are characterized by the interplay of metallic threads, occasionally integrated with other lightweight materials like wood and wool. Through her skilled hands, these threads undergo a transformation into voluminous shapes that are at once organic and dynamic, exuding delicacy and sophistication. These forms engage in a ballet with light and shadow, creating transparent or semi-transparent structures that embody poetry, grace, and elegance.
