Introducing the fourth limited edition from the 'Abstraction' series—a bronze occasional table that marries contemporary innovation with refined artistry. Beginning as a molten bio-polymer, it is then stretched under precise pressure between two heated aluminum plates. Once the required height is reached the resulting form is rapidly cooled with a blend of liquid nitrogen and compressed air, capturing a unique silhouette in mid-motion. Meticulously hand-finished and subtly enhanced with an outer shell of resin-impregnated fabric, the piece is ultimately cast in bronze using the age-old lost-wax method. The piece stands as a thoughtful exploration of modern form and craft, quietly reflecting a careful dialogue between contemporary techniques and time-honored practices.
Kris Lamba was born in London in 1984. He creates large and small-scale sculpture, paintings and edition based collectible design. Eschewing tradition media, he works with a variety of industrial biopolymers which Lamba manipulates whilst still molten, often at extreme temperatures. Using a combination of great force, gravity and a pioneering technique of polymer-stretching, he creates otherworldly forms; shapes that defy convention and echo the spontaneous and often violent moments of interstellar creation.
Aiming to partly remove the element of ‘self’ Lamba adjusts only certain parameters: temperature, quantity, molecular weight and the applied force. Then, using custom designed machinery he pulls apart the molten material, selectively freezing and re-heating where necessary; the resulting shapes seemingly grown rather than made. After a period of consideration, the forms are refined and re-worked over a period of weeks and are either cast in bronze using the traditional ‘lost-wax’ method, or are finished in precious metals, pigment rich paints and composite resin fabrics.
Creating work is an energetic process for Lamba, his pieces becoming expressions of a singularity; ideas forged though intense experimentation, later undergoing gradual stages of refinement and craftsmanship. Originally a trained classical percussionist Lamba then went on to study contemporary design. His stretched and manipulated sculptures can be seen as a rebellion against the confines of working within tradition; their spontaneous forms defying and reworking traditional artistic practice. His recent series of raw pigment sculptures go further to reinforce this point, warping the very space that they occupy. Lamba’s work has been published worldwide to widespread critical acclaim and is held in several prominent collections. He currently lives and works near Brighton, UK.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
