CHANNAPATNA STAMBH

2018

Marrying the primordial children's toy craft with a modern aesthetic, 'The Channapatna Stools,’ a pair of perch stools enveloped in red, embody form, function and colour. Assembled as individual sculpture stems, holding up a perfectly matched cast metal top, the naturally dyed red pieces, handcrafted in ’Channapatna’ are sanded to perfection.

The calculatedly designed set of beads, concave and convex, sit beautifully within the other for a circular form that seems endless and therapeutic in movement, almost soothing. The two sizes, a visual play of stature, tall and lean and short and stout work seamlessly as they move as a pair.
