About the Item

Sprouter Pot by Estudio Rafael Freyre Dimensions: D 15 x H 8 cm Materials: Andes Stone, Amazonic Wood. Also Available: Other materials and finishes available. The Sprouters series explores the interaction of mineral and plant organisms. When they come into contact with the soil, the seeds start their germination process in the dark. Minerals and water are the mediums that support this natural transformation process. Each soil is different in its mineral composition, and therefore in each soil the seed and plant vary and are transformed by absorbing its components. Sprouts are pieces carved in various minerals from different heights of the Peruvian Andes. The piece, in the form of a container with a lid, alludes to a latent force in its interior and proposes to the spectator the act of germination as a physical interaction with the object. ESTUDIO RF is located in Lima, Peru. We are dedicated to the research of the contemporary habitat and natural environments in the Peruvian context, seeking to dissolve established limits between them. Our multidisciplinary team is conformed by visual artists, architects, traditional artisans, performers, designers, actors and writers. We regard art as an open field that functions like a hub that establishes new relationships between nature and human activity. We aim to rebuild the continuity between natural landscape, art and architecture by reconnecting the current urban condition with the bodily experience of being free in the wilderness. We acknowledge fluidity and non-definition of the landscape; a wild and dynamic setting were everything coexists without visible hierarchy or law. In opposition, the urban landscape is defined by social codification, segregation and segmentation of space. The values of the global market and technological modernity are creating distance and alienation in everyday life. Faced with this, we return to the heterogeneous, through natural ecosystems, to raw materials, to organic processes and to traditional local craft; we bring to light its real value, and reestablish contact between these elements and the body. We consider the human being and society not as nucleus, but as part of an ecosystem; a big community of living organisms. In a society governed by images, noise, artificial light and industrial materials, we find solace and intimacy in the darkness of the wild environment that meet us through the opaque and warm qualities of the natural shadows surrounding us. We create a balance between visible and palpable, between sound and silence, between industrial or digital production and natural or artisanal materials. Our goal, beyond ideologies or artistic intent and manifestos, is to reimagine the intimate acts of daily life as a potential means for future transformation.
