Loleka-5 sculpture by KrzywdaDimensions: 30 L x 30 D x 30 H cmMaterials: Brass, marble, leatherIndividually handmade in France by Krzywda. All materials employed are from France. The individually selected marble blocks are extracted from French quarries that have been active for over 1000 years. Versailles and the Sacré-Cœur are among the structures that were built thanks to these "Royal Quarries".Krzywda (pronounce "Shivda"), established by artist and designer Edouard Sankowski, is a transatlantic venture dedicated to the design and fabrication of artwork, fine objects and furniture. Edouard, who has been designing and sculpting since 2003, learned to engineer and assemble ideas through observation and an insatiable curiosity for anything foreign to him. Learning to leverage his intuition and education he also inherited a Bauhaus school of thought working alongside his father, Alexander, an architect, engineer, designer and artist who collaborated with mies van der rohe, Philip Johnson, im pei, …His work reflects this very process: noble materials, a meticulous dedication to craftsmanship and an exploration of new approaches from the first drawing up until the work is delivered.Working out of the French countryside with only a handful of collaborators, edouard intentionally limits his output generating a limited number of projects yearly, privileging quality over quantity.
