Candelabra Minestrone is handmade by French-born, Mallorca based Artist Marion De Raucourt.
Minestrone is the name of a series of objects created using a unique molding technique. Fabric molds are made, into which a mixture of plaster and acrylic is poured. As the material dries and is removed from the mold, the objects reveal the imprint of seams, the fabric’s texture, and the sagging of the material. The pieces in this series—including painted columns, stools, tables, and chandeliers—explore the duality between stability and fragility. They evoke a world in deformation, a dreamlike state where the boundaries of objects blur and their shapes distort. Inspired by classical Baroque furniture, these forms appear as caricatures in decay. You can read more about Marion and her work here.
