"Lluna" Incense Holder – Reshaping Collection

The Concept:

Part of the ongoing Reshaping Collection, Lluna — the Catalan word for moon — is a hand-formed clay incense holder made in The Studio by one of the youngest members of the Sinopia collective. The crescent form cradles a single incense stick at the precise angle that allows it to burn completely, the ash falling into the curved hollow below. The surface finish — clay mixed with coffee grounds — gives the piece its warm, speckled texture: two materials combined that have no business being together and work completely.

The Form:

At approximately 18cm wide, 5cm deep and 7cm tall, Lluna sits on any surface with the quiet authority of something that belongs there. The crescent silhouette references the Luna wall relief — the collection's largest circular piece — in miniature: the same formal logic of the incomplete circle, the same commitment to the curve as the most considered line. A small object that carries the whole collection's sensibility in its palm-sized form.
