STEEL AND KAURI

15^th December 2010

| Riva 1920,  Wood Museum  & Showroom | Cantù, Italy

The harmonious blend of steel and Kauri, the only timber in the world to be extracted  from trees buried in mud for over 50 thousand years in New Zealand  is the essence of this 10 meters high masterpiece. A symbiosis in which the coldness and warmth of man-made and natural materials strike a contrasting yet organic balance.

The monument is located in Via Milano,110, Cantù (co), Italy,  in front of the entrance of the “Riva 1920” Museum and showroom.
