Artist statement
The Ondamarmo series by Federica Elmo for Bloc studios includes 6 objects: The extra large dining table, two smaller size tables, three shelves, and a tray designed as an evolution of the shapes of the Onda metal tables from 2017. Onda is an exploration of Industrial finishes applied to expressive forms inspired by water and sea life producing a visual clash. Bringing the same approach of Onda to a higher level with marble enhancing a strong almost liquid plasticity, these rounded and smooth shapes are combined with the finishing study that the designer is conducting on surface transformation and image transfer on organic materials.
For Ondamarmo, the designer developed, together with industry specialists, a 3D inkjet printing with liquid paint, completely new processing.
The Challenge is to hybridize the surface of the marble by working on transferring images that play with the ambiguity of fiction and reality.
The aim of this project is to investigate on textures and color reflections also as a ploy to elevate second-choice marble slabs into something unique and precious.
