Ward Wijnant is known for his experimental shapes and reinterpretations of mundane items. His new series is titled CHUNK and is no exception to his abstract style. Ward Wijnant experiments with the typical forms of mirrors and candleholders with this textured series.
Made from hand-molded tinfoil, the series consists of luminescent pieces. Wijnant believes technique and material can guide the artist to the piece's final form. The series represents the endless design possibilities available to us through imagination and creativity. The designer hand-folded the tinfoil to give each object its own weight and structure. This technique enabled the series to take on a unique lustrous texture. Wijnant successfully transformed common household material into works of art through the CHUNK series.
