Wall objects with hundreds of Placuna shells

The mother-of-pearl in the hundreds of shells reflects the incoming light. If this is bright, they shine, and by candlelight, they show a soft shine. The shells look fragile but are quite strong. They are all suspended from a slightly curved frame.

The sizes vary from 80×80 cm up to 150x150cm. | 2003-2005| Prices from € 2000
