Tangled

December 6, 2013 By Trend Staff -

SOFA_web_revisedSOFA, the annual Sculptural Objects Functional Art + Design fair at Navy Pier in Chicago, is a carefully curated event, featuring the work of some 70-ish international exhibitors of studio glass, ceramics, wood, fiber, metal, jewelry, design and art furniture.

This year, there Editorial Correspondent Elaine Markoutsas noted an interest in knotted and tangled forms. These complicated structures were embraced in ceramic, glass and wood, with organic and even neural, cellular inspirations, such as the brain. Here are a few of  The Trend Curve’s favorites:

Leonardo Cimolin via Berengo Studio 1989
Josephine Burr’s yellow knot
Curlicue, by Lizzey Farey
Mauro Bonaventura at Bernego Studio 1989
