Born from Caterina Moretti’s contemplations, these three cylindrical shapes of different heights are created from a mold comprised of a repetition of wooden rods. It is a truly symbolic warp, weaving the threads of art and design together, as well as the genesis of the collection we have called “Sílice”.
By studying the external texture of the wooden rods, a curiosity developed to further delve into what might become of the interior space if we used them as molds for the blown glass technique. What if we experimented with non-preconceived forms and if we created a parametric design in an analog fashion and experienced the performance under the premise of: mold + free blown glass.
Artists José Miguel Gómez and Diego Vides Borell were invited by Caterina to fuse their emotions, thoughts, and creativity into “Sílice” to broaden the concept, breathing in and out the design of these stunning containers.
