About the Item
Drawing their name from the geological term indicating petrified fragments spat from volcanoes, the objects from the Tephra series are handcrafted using real, specially treated flowers mounted on sculptural forms made of steel wire and jute. Metallised using a thermo-coating technique that covers the dense textures in a paper-thin layer of molten metal, the structures preserve the eternal blossom in an almost Pompeiian effect of silhouettes covered in volcanic debris.
The vertical form of the Tephra Sculpture 001 comes from the study of plants’ anatomy, revealing an unexpected complexity of botanic forms that symbolise nature’s creativity.
The sewing, bending and welding interlaced with the sublime fragility of flowers are blended, and in fact muted, by the rigidity of the industrial metallisation process. Cocooned by streams of liquified metal and finished by hand to achieve a polished or matte texture, the sculptures, reminiscent of monochrome bas-reliefs, establish a new field of exploration for Marcin Rusak Studio studio.
The objects from the Tephra series are made using natural components sealed with a protective layer of resin and metal. However, occasional irregularities may occur as part of the metallisation process, revealing underlying organic elements. These should be treated as an individual specificity of each object.
The piece will be shipped in a museum-quality wooden fumigated crate suitable for airfreight.

Marcin Rusak
Marcin Rusak was born in 1987, Warsaw, Polan). Rusak is an artist and multidisciplinary designer interested in ideas of value, ephemerality and aesthetics. Specializing in storytelling, process and material investigation his work often incorporates research, object and installation as well as visual creations to explore overlooked details of our lives, which recreated and re-imagined are shown again in a different light. As the son and grandson of flower growers, he has long been fascinated by these natural sources of inspiration and decoration. Engaging them in his creative process began by reusing waste to investigate new decorative elements within everyday objects and led to a rich body of work ranging from research and storytelling to cultural criticism around consumption and future scenarios.
Unique Tephra Sculptures are available exclusively on a commission basis. Available metal applications include zinc and bronze, in matte and polished finish, with floral embellishment varying depending on the botanic material used.
