$5,760 Sale Price40% Off - "Cephalic" Hammered Copper, Organic Shape, NaturalisticLocated in Detroit, MISALE ONE WEEK ONLY "Cephalic" is a perfect example of what Kai means when he calls his work biomorphic. Biomorphic comes from combining the Greek words 'bios', meaning life, and 'morphe', meaning form. The term seems to have come into use around the 1930s to describe the imagery in the more abstract types of surrealist painting and sculpture particularly in the work of Joan Miró and Jean Arp. Kai achieves a compelling balance between abstract form and organic reference in "Lilly Pod". Kai Wolter; artist, object maker of Kaiwerx Studio, was born 1972 in Aspen, Colorado. He established Soulmetal Jewelry in Chicago in 1994. Attended the University of The Arts in Philadelphia in 1997, studied metalsmithing and sculpture earning a BFA in 2002 then attended The Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan where he earned his MFA Metalsmithing in 2006. By 2008 he established his Kaiwerx Studio. Exhibitions include shows in Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Maryland, Michigan, Japan, Finland, and Germany. Kai currently lives and works in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, has graduated numerous well-known artists and has had extraordinary faculty. Cranbrook was designed by architect and faculty member, Eliel Saarinen who collaborated with Charles and Ray Eames on chair and furniture design.

$3,250 Sale Price50% Off - John Piet "Untitled" Abstract Geometric SteelLocated in Detroit, MISALE ONE WEEK ONLY John Piet's "Untitled" from 1974 is a welded sculpture with two opposing forms connected by a swoop of steel. Piet's sculptural work explores the tension between contending elements, and other works investigating the relationship of heaven and earth.
