About the Item

Title: “Angular Tension” About The Piece: We designed this one of a kind titled work of functional art that was inspired by Paul Evans City Scape series. In designing and fabricating this one of a kind hand made titled work of functional art, we wanted to take Paul Evans work to a new level by emphasizing the interactive complexity between the 3, 4, and 5 sided boxes and the importance of the blacked out negative space between them. We further developed the connectivity amongst these boxes by applying various shades of gold, palladium, silver, aluminum and variegated metal gold leaf as well as Tamise. Essentially we were painting with the application of the metal leafs and its further decoration, utilizing various colors and black in a layered fashion similar to the layers of paint that Wassily Kandinski and Willem de Kooning would use in their work. A group of images, as the piece is being constructed, will be supplied to the perspective buyer upon request. The cabinet is of moderate size for multiple placement within a home or office with additional functionality with an adjustable shelf and two drawers. We also wanted the construction to relate to the highest level of traditional craftsmanship. From an artistic perspective, we wanted the sides and front of the cabinet to be a single interactive flowing sculptural element. Materials: All old stock Honduran mahogany, mahogany veneer , Richlite Black Diamond made from 100% FSA certified recycled paper, MDO, custom priming and ground layers, 23 karate, 23 karat red, 22 karat surface, 22 karat deep, 22 karat French Pale, 22 Karat Moon, 18 karat lemon, palladium, silver, aluminum, faux gold Italian, faux gold variegated, Tamise, Le Franc oil sizing, and moderately low VOC conversion varnish. Construction: Meticulous "Old World" craftsmanship was used in all aspects of the pieces design and construction to include; hand cut dovetails for case and drawers, hand cut mortise and tenon joints for the case's frame and panel systems and doors, and sliding dovetails for the drawer runners. Size: Side to Side 36”, Front to Back 18”, Height 29.25”
