STUDIOTWENTYSEVEN
Durelli’s Awakening collection embodies the raw, otherworldly beauty of Iceland’s landscapes, where nature’s sculptural forces—wind, water, and time—have carved out terrains that seem both ancient and futuristic. Durelli’s fascination with these landscapes, which have inspired settings in science fiction, infuses the work with a subtle sense of fantasy, suggesting that the natural world holds contains both the familiar and the fantastical
The works draw deeply from the ethereal beauty of Iceland’s glacial lagoons, where ice and water converge in a sublime expression of nature’s quiet power. Durelli captures the tranquility and vastness of These lagoons and their crystalline waters, along with rugged, elemental terrain that surrounds them. The bold organic forms at the heart of the collection evoke the sculptural quality of natural ice formations, celebrating the peaceful majesty and awesome power of the near arctic landscape
Handcrafted in italy, each work features cast patinated bronze in a variety of finishes. The bronze is masterfully sculpted to suggest the dynamic movement and stoic solidity of ice floes, beckoning us to marvel at soft flow of water and the jagged forms of glaciers alike. By distilling the essence of the Icelandic landscape into sculptural form, Awakening evokes a sense of wonder and reverence for nature’s artistry, where time, ice, and water have sculpted a transcendent and mysterious terrain
Exclusive to Studiotwentyseven and in strictly limited edition, Awakening bridges the earthly and the fantastical, inviting the viewer to see anew the profound beauty of a world shaped by time and humanity’s place within it
