About the Item
Patinated Bronze Resin Copper Halitrephes Wall Mounted Sculpture by David Tragen
Dimensions: W 61 x D 61 x H 9.5 cm
Materials: Patinated bronze resin, copper leaf.
Weight: 6 kg.
Sheer delight coupled with some magical visuals of the Halitrephes Maasi, a rare jellyfish of the deep sea, spurred me on to create this limited edition handmade sculpture in its honour.
The Halitrephes Maasi, a dazzling creature nicknamed the firework jellyfish, was first discovered off the Baja California Peninsula at a depth of over 4000 ft. Given that so few people will get to see this incandescent wonder, I wanted to pay homage to it, albeit in abstracted form.
I have cast the wall-mounted sculpture in bronze resin with fibreglass and finished it with a patina with an array of black and brown hues and subtle hints of pale green. As a contrast to the dark body of the piece, I have then gilded the recessed details with Italian copper leaf before protecting the whole piece with a wax finish.
This sculpture is an edition of 12 and further copies can be commissioned in either foundry bronze or bronze resin and finished in copper, gold or silver leaf. More information about the difference between foundry bronze and bronze resin can be found here, whilst the following blog looks more closely at patinas and surface finishes when working with the two different types of bronze.
The piece measures 610mm in diameter with a depth of 95mm. The mounting plate allows for the sculpture to be suspended at a distance of between 20 and 40mm from the wall, thus creating the illusion that it is floating in harmony with sky, earth and sea.

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.
