Wave. A Piece of 3D Sculptural Gold Leather Wall Art.

About the Item

Wave: A piece of 3D sculptural wall art designed and made from two layers of gold leather, woven together by Louise Heighes. Measurements are 21 x 21 inches or 54 x 54 cm. This piece has been inspired by basket weaving. I love the way a simple pattern can be created in weaving that from a distance looks pretty uniform, but upon closer inspection each small element of the woven pattern is completely unique and slightly different from its neighbours. . I have recreated this idea using thousands of tiny pieces of leather woven together. Each one slightly different from the next and catching the light in a different way. These artworks are crafted from two layers of sustainably sourced leather meticulously cut and intricately woven together, creating a rich sculptural surface. When installed the 3D nature of the work creates beautiful shadows that add an extra depth to the work. I have always been inspired by the flow and movement which I see in the natural world. Be it a field of wild flowers or the blossom on a tree, I have always loved the way the shape of a single petal or flower can be repeated over again, creating myriad of ever changing new patterns. The importance of simplicity, craftsmanship and creating something by hand is key to what I do.
