Carla Cascales Alimbau is an artist from Barcelona who has made irregularity the main merit of her favourite art form: sculpture. Characterized by a palette of neutral tones, materials such as macael stone, wood and glass, Carla manipulates the shapes of her objects to create minimal and timeless interiors.

Tulip Noire and Tulip Crème are the names of two works composed of circular slabs of black smashed and cream marble. They take up approaches typical of Kintsugi’s Japanese art, such as: working with broken, crushed or irregular materials and enhancing signs of wear.

Seda, on the other hand, is the name of the limited series of twisted shaped glass objects:

“Glass is a material in which hardness and fragility coexist in balance; during the molding of the piece it broke and repaired itself, creating a scar of glass that becomes a beauty trait”.

Carla’s propensity to see beauty in the worn out enhances authenticity above perfection.
