Delphine Grandvaux
"Cocon", Hand-Woven Smooth Black Metal Pendant Sculpture

About the Item

Titled "Cocon," this airy metallic sculpture was entirely hand-woven by artist Delphine Grandvaux using annealed iron wire. For installation, this piece is to be suspended from the ceiling. Delphine Grandvaux is a French sculptor. Motivated by her passion for creating light and airy artworks, she has developed a unique artistic approach rooted in a metal wire mesh technique akin to that of Ruth Asawa. In Grandvaux’s woven works, metallic threads, sometimes combined with lighter materials like wood, wool, and more, are tamed through her masterful technique and uninhibited imagination. Under her hands, they transform into voluminous, organic, and dynamic forms, delicate and refined, with fluid movements both within and beyond the artwork itself. By playing with light and shadow, the transparent or semi-transparent forms she creates evoke a sense of poetry, delicacy, and elegance.
