Solar Eclipse - Sten Studio - Ø 40 in - Handcrafted obsidian mirror
About the Item
Obsidian, brass, LED
Collaboration with FOAM studio
Handcrafted and powered by Casambi, light dimmable and controlled by its app in a smartphone.
***Dimensions may vary due to the obsidian slab.***
Brass and obsidian create a dynamic interplay of light and shadow in this piece where the stone represents the Sun, and the metal the Moon. While, as a satellite, the Moon can reflect natural light – as it happens when it remains visible during the day– it also absorbs light as it happens during a solar eclipse, when it is seen as one with the Sun if observed in the dark. The Solar Eclipse table evokes both the reflective and absorbent properties of the Moon at once. Additionally, the contraposition between brass and obsidian is further enhanced by the use of LED lights that, once switched on, add a unique glow to the piece and eliminate the possibility of complete darkness, which is most commonly seen during Solar Eclipse, unless one finds themselves in specific points on the Earth during its occurrence.
Part of our Abyssal Astronomy Collection
The history of our planet cannot be disconnected from that of the cosmos; therefore, the mineral world and outer space share a strong bond. Throughout history, different civilizations have represented this connection through symbolisms, primarily religious ones. Central American cultures, for instance, synced their artistic and architectural creations with celestial movements and their influence on everyday life, often representing natural phenomena and deriving their cultures and knowledge from the behaviors of the skies they observed.
Similarly, the Abyssal Astronomy collection features representations of natural phenomena such as orbits and eclipses and it is manufactured using techniques that belong to the far-gone peoples that inhabited the lands where this collection was designed and produced, keeping alive their cultural and handcrafting heritage.
An additional tie to the local heritage and cosmological connection is added by another characteristic of the obsidian stone. Laying at the bottom of the sea before the formation of mountains where it is found today, because of its origin obsidian best represents the distance between the Universe and the Earth, and it perfectly symbolizes the tie between them.
