Vintage Copper Basket
For Josh, Copper Baskets represent the expansion of the universe being pulled outward by the force of dark energy, countered by the constraint of mass and gravity.
Sylva Petrova, Former Curator of Decorative Arts Museum in Prague, Czech Republic, says: “The Copper Basket Series marks one of the high points in Simpson’s oeuvre. Not as conventionally beautiful as some of Simpson’s works, they are organic in appearance, suggesting ancient vessels whose original purpose can now scarcely be determined.”
13” x 11” x 10”
Made in 2008. Inscribed “Simpson” and 9.2008 on the side.
