Maelstrom limited edition contemporary bronze sculpture by artist, David Tragen
About the Item
This limited edition of twelve wall mounted bronze sculptures is inspired by a fascinating natural phenomenon. In a maelstrom, hidden forces are in play in an alluring dance choreographed by the power of Mother Nature. The calmness at the smooth outer edge, morphs into a flurry of spiral waves, threatening to crash in on themselves before being drawn into the central vortex. The zen-like stillness of the circular inside and outside edges is in a fine balance with the dramatic twist that joins them together.
The first three casts in this series demonstrate a few of the various finishes as well as overall materials available. Pictured here is a foundry bronze cast with a pale green patina with hints of blue and black, shimmering with the phosphorescence of the sea which is the second edition in the series and is available immediately shipping worldwide.
This edition has been finished with wax and is suitable for interior display.7115
Each sculpture measures 495mm in diameter and is 90mm deep. The mounting plate allows for the piece to be suspended at a distance of between 20mm and 40mm from the wall, creating the illusion that it is floating.
It is possible to cast further editions with other patinas, however foundry bronze offers a wider range of effects than bronze resin.

David Tragen
I am a British designer and artist creating original, contemporary furniture, wall art and sculpture. I make both open and limited edition pieces to my own design, as well as working closely with clients on bespoke commissions. I work from a converted barn in rural Cheshire and all my designs are made to order, ensuring that whether you choose a piece from my existing collection, or commission something wholly unique, it will have been created for you, by me, with intense focus and attention to detail. I believe that by introducing beautiful things to the home, whether furniture or art, offers benefits that far exceed the aesthetics. The poet John Keats said: “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” Owning something that makes your heart leap a little at every sight, bringing a future heirloom into your home, is an eternal pleasure. I find my inspiration primarily in the natural world and regularly use themes of movement and flow, characterised by clean lines and gently undulating curves. My work is predominantly handmade and blends traditional craftsmanship with digital design and production. My creative journey began in Barcelona in 1996, where I originally trained before returning to the UK, in 2002, to gain two further years’ experience in two of the country’s leading fine furniture workshops. Here I learned the precision and attention to detail that characterises the work of the best names in luxury, bespoke cabinetry, from Thomas Chippendale to David Linley.
Further editions can be commissioned in either foundry bronze or bronze resin with either a patina or a brushed finish. This edition is finished with wax, suitable for interior display. Please enquire about choices of finish if your sculpture is to be displayed outside.
