Description

The white ceramic functional sculpture embraces a celestial inspired design and incorporates an architectural approach. Crafted with attention, it showcases an organic shape and porous, rocky texture that evokes the essence of celestial elements. When illuminated, it emits a soft and etheral light, reminiscent of the subtle radiance found in a comet’s tail. The sculpture seamlessly merges celestial inspiration with architectural sensibilities, resulting in a fusion of artistry and functionality.
The ĀSTRA lamp is part of a collection of two ceramic pieces named DŪO.
This functional sculpture is handcrafted from clay.
Embracing imperfection, it celebrates the beauty of individuality.

About Andrei Clontea STUDIO Visit Showroom →

Andrei Clontea is a self taught artist who has seamlessly transitioned from the world of architecture to the realm of ceramics. Splitting his time between Luxembourg and Brussels, he has embarked on an artistic journey exploring the infinite possibilities that clay has to offer. His work manifests as sculptural forms that draw inspiration from the elegance of nature, the grace of animals, and the complexity of human body. By translating these influences into organic shapes with earthy textures, he brings a harmonious balance between rawness and refinement. While nature serves as a wellspring of inspiration, his artistic vision transcends its mere replication. His architectural background manifests in his approach as he weaves elements of structure, texture and light into his ceramic pieces. It is through this fusion of natural and architectural sensibilities that his art assumes a distinct character - a dialogue between seemingly contrasting elements. Through his sculptural forms he invites viewers to embark on a sensory journey where they can explore the intricate relationship between human, nature, and architecture.
