6:AM presents the new pieces of the 1/1/1 ongoing sculpture series

Milan, November 2023

1/1/1, A SCULPTURE SERIES WHERE MURANO GLASS AND CARRARA MARBLE MEET. RANDOM MOLDS, MADE WITH RECYCLED MATERIAL FOUND AROUND THE HOT SHOP, ALLOW THE GLASS TO TAKE UNPREDICTABLE SHAPES, WHILE A SOFT IMPERFECT TEXTURE IS GIVEN BY THE MARBLE POWDER RETRIEVED FROM THE CAVES.

6:AM Glassworks presents the 5th batch of the ongoing sculpture series: 1/1/1. 
These pieces, crafted from blown glass using molds made with refractory bricks from the furnace, exhibit a distinctive and irreproducible artistry. 

During the crafting process, the use of Carrara marble dust plays a crucial role in defining the sculptures' strong color and irregular textures: each piece has a unique shape, evoking the rugged beauty of the scars left by mountain quarries.

In this latest series, the sculptures are reimagined as side tables, a unique piece of furniture: their substantial size and the complex craftsmanship involved in the blowing process, demand significant effort and dedication on their creation.

A one-of-a-kind pieces that define the collection's unique essence.

1/1/1 represents the work of research, experimentation and development of new techniques, materials and concepts.

The collection is sparked by curiosity and driven by a passion for design. Each sculpture is an original concept by 6:AM Glassworks, handblown in Murano, Venice (Italy).

Exclusively available at Gallery FUMI, London.
