01 — Form

Read it from across the room.

Before material, before detail: the outline. A piece should hold its shape against a wall, a window, a sky — and be recognisable from the doorway.

02StudioManRabbitHouse — Robert Santore

One studio, new perspectives. Sculpture with a presence of its own — and objects made to hold a room.

A — Sculpture

Angle, mass, silhouette.

Abstract and architectural work, built from planes and folds. The practice includes prints in metal filament: geometry built up layer by layer, then given the weight and presence of metal.

B — For the home

Decorative, by design.

Highly designed objects scaled for a shelf, a table, a windowsill. Pieces meant to be lived with and looked at every day — and still noticed on the hundredth.

C — Perspective

Man. Rabbit. House.

A person. An animal. A dwelling. As the viewpoint changes, the same angular form suggests another identity. That shifting perception sits at the heart of the studio.

04ProcessApproach, in four moves

  1. Silhouette

    Drawn as an outline first. If the profile doesn't hold, nothing else will.

  2. Geometry

    Planes, folds and angles resolved before anything is made.

  3. Making

    Fabrication — including metal-filament printing where the form asks for it.

  4. Placement

    Judged in a real room: window light, shelf height, the distance of a glance.
