Andrés Monnier is a Mexican Artist, born in Guadalajara and now based in Ensenada.
His purpose is to create sculptural pieces to express stories through the synergy between art, design and sculpture. This collection is inspired by Greek Mythology, with natural rock and form at its core. IN THIS MODERN HUMAN WORLD... AREN’T WE LIVING IN A COLLECTIVE AMNESIA BY FORGETTING WHERE WE COME FROM? BY BURNING OUR ROOTS? OUR ANCESTORS USED TO CREATE SEVERAL ROCK PYRAMIDAL STRUCTURES.... NOT ONLY IN AMERICA, BUT IN SEVERAL PLACES IN THE GLOBE. AND IN DIFFERENT STAGES OF TIME. ARCHEOLOGISTS AND SCIENTISTS BELIEVED IN MANY THEORIES... FROM A SYMBOLIC REPRESENTATION OF FIRE TO A VANE IDEA OF A DESIRE OF TOUCHING THE SKY... PRETTY LIMITED THEORIES AREN’T THEY? THIS PIECE IS A WAY OF ASKING IF THIS MODERN HUMAN WORLD WE’RE LIVING, BASED ON NEWTONIAN SCIENCE, RELIGION AND MATTER IS A PATH THROUGH TRANSCENDENCY AND EVOLUTION, OR JUST A DESIGN THAT IS KILLING THE PLANET AND THE SPECIES WE LIVE WITH AND THAT WE HUMANS THINK WE POSSES? Available in all standard finishes with custom materials and sizing available upon request.

EXPECTED LEAD TIME     18/22 WEEKS
