Lips Alone - sensual wall sculptures

The modular shadow sculpture focuses entirely on a single commanding fragment of the face, capturing the subtle contours of the mouth completely integrated into a strict monochrome aesthetic. Conceived by the artistic collective Furst_Ori for the Artandshadow line, this individual piece draws inspiration from the structural rigor of the Bauhaus, bridging minimalist modernism with a sharp contemporary pop sensibility. The composition features lips captured from a 1920s black and white photograph, which has been given a stylized newsprint halftone texture to emphasize that iconic pop art feel – creating a striking visual theater where vintage photography and industrial design collide.

The independent nature of the work allows complete spatial freedom for high-end interior design and luxury home decor. It can be hung as a standalone minimalist accent or paired with existing artworks to create a distinct focal point on an empty wall. As natural or artificial light shifts throughout the day, the steel frame projects sharp focused shadows that interact with the surrounding surface, transforming the sculpture into a living wall installation that evolves with the room's atmosphere.

The meticulous production involves solid round six-millimeter steel bars, hand-welded directly by the artists and polished to a clean silver iron sheen. Crafted entirely by hand to order inside the Furst_Ori studio, located in an old sugar factory on the outskirts of Granada, Spain, each piece is born directly from their fine arts practice. The high-quality monochrome print is protected by acrylic glass, establishing a powerful material contrast between the solid iron framework and the transparency of the inner core.

The unit measures ten centimeters on all sides, presenting a lightweight yet structurally impactful presence in minimalist homes, design studios, or executive offices. This exclusive design by Artandshadow is protected and cannot be reproduced, ensuring your collection remains unique. To achieve the full depth of the structural shadows, the sculpture is best mounted on a light-colored wall where directional lighting can amplify the interplay of steel, image, and space.
