Description
Marcello De Simone and Bruce Wayland are the Amsterdam based Italian/American design duo behind Studio DeSimoneWayland. Since 2010 they have been combining their backgrounds in both studio art and art history to create one of a kind wall art.Their medium of choice is ceramic plates, at first combined with paintings in their Altered Perspectives series, and later created in stoneware and porcelain by the artists in their atelier in Amsterdam.
"One of the medium we explore in our artworks is that of plates in the Western and Eastern tradition. "¨
Our attraction to plates "“ and by extension to ceramics in general "“ came by way of their surface decoration as well as their shapes.
The concept of combining the subject matter of the plates with another image came about in 2010 with our Altered Perspectives."¨
As the name implies the "˜perspective' of the painting is "˜altered' through its unique dialogue with the subject of the decoration of the plates, the sum of the whole being more interesting than the individual parts."¨
Each Altered Perspectives composition is the result of finding the perfect selection of plates (based on their subject) and have them dialogue with a painting. We create the layout that can at best highlight the details in the painting and reference the decoration on each plate.
Only once we are satisfied with the composition we start the process of creating the artwork.
As we explored the idea of these combinations, the shapes of the various plates also became an important element of the overall composition.
Since their inception, the Altered Perspectives have been commissioned by Anthropologie and Terrain (2010-13), MaxMara (2014-15), Achmea (2016), The Walt Disney Company (2017), and have been published in several international interior design magazines."
A hanging guide will be included with purchase, to make arranging the plates a breeze!
