Kelp sculpture

This gilt sculptural piece was created from luminaria, or more commonly known as kelp. Once treated, the kelp was carefully covered in gold leaf. This piece blends a rich range of techniques and is part of a constant exploration of the aesthetics and technical challenges of algae within design and craftsmanship.
