Every single piece was casted in high-quality 316 stainless steel, hand-polished by craftsmen and finished with various colors. Each design contains a physical emptiness in its sculptural form, giving the metaphor that you can fill the space with your own memory.
Sharing the same interests about the collision of technology and craftsmanship, they ponder over the ultimate question ” what will happen if the technology becomes invisible. ”
They consider the Empty Memory collection as their first response to this long quest.
The collection comes with two different designs – Structure and Transparency, which are the results of two different approaches regarding the same concept by each designer.
The complicated shape of Structure can only be made with Lost-Wax Casting as an unibody.
The Lost-Wax Casting process is normally applied for industrial components; it is not easy to maintain high production volume while keeps the quality of craftsmanship.
After a long period of searching, one and only one manufacturer in Taiwan successfully achieved this high standard and this project is under production now.

Empty Memory is now available at www.logical-art.co.uk

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
