Description/
The Penzai Collection is a culmination of a three year collaboration between French artist Emma Donnersberg and Chilean-born designer Abel Cárcamo. The collaboration was born from their shared interest in artisanal dexterity and process, as well as their common sensibility for sculpture and abstract forms. Working with Founderie Fusions, the artists hand molded sculptural designs in plaster and worked with artisans, primarily in bronze, to materialize their designs using the lost-wax technique.
