Description
A dense field of emerald where accumulation becomes its own indictment. This work considers how acquisition is normalized, even celebrated, and what it quietly displaces. What we gather, and what gathering costs.
The green refuses warmth. Rhinestones that signal luxury and status are turned inward, compounding until spectacle becomes pressure, and desire for more becomes its own kind of trap.
Framing
The artwork is presented in a simple floating frame for photography and safe transit. This framing is not intended as a permanent design element and may be replaced to suit the collector’s space.
Materials
Acrylic, canvas, glass rhinestones, adhesive.
Technique
A painted ground establishes the base field, over which thousands of rhinestones are hand-placed one by one to create a dense reflective surface. The interaction between matte paint and faceted stone allows light, texture, and depth to shift with the viewer’s movement.
Shipping and Inclusions
Complimentary domestic and international shipping is included with all acquisitions. Each work is secured in custom-built packaging or professional crating, determined by the specific dimensions and structural requirements of the piece. Artwork is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity. To ensure the longevity of the work, a curated conservation kit is included. This contains a selection of glass rhinestones in every size utilized on the specific panel, housed in glassine envelopes for future professional conservation or repair if ever required.
