About the Item
An Impossible stack of unlikely advances reaching skyward by Batten and Kamp
Dimensions: D 20 x W 20 x H 78 cm
Materials: Laser sintered titanium, granite stone.
“An Impossible Stack of Unlikely Advances Reaching Skyward” is a sculpture featuring a digital assemblage of internet-sourced 3D files 3D printed in Titanium and mounted to a found stone. The assemblage comprises objects relating to the history of design, seen in the wider sense of the human tendency to manipulate nature. “A human hand reminiscent of religious iconography sits atop an industrial robot suction gripper, atop a Noguchu coffee table leg, atop a 3D scanned 1.7 million year old proto-biface stone tool, all precariously balanced on a fragment of the bedrock beneath our feet”
Batten and Kamp launch a new collection of sculptural furniture inspired by New Zealand and science fiction.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
