Artist statement
Working continuously in the development of objects made of soapstone for many years, ALVA has explored the plastic potential of this material in different ways, in addition to experimenting with other elements. The last result of this long experience presents the PERFUMARIA line, where the stone is accompanied by noble woods, with shapes and geometries that refer to perfume bottles. The collection consists of three different vases, each with a turned wooden lid. The shapes and the contrast between the materials highlight the nobility of the raw materials and the exuberance of each component. PERFUMARIA pieces come with two lids each: one made of wood and one made of stone. These, when used next to the vases, create sculptural and playful compositions.
