By Curtis Jeré
Located in Wheat Ridge, CO
Curtis Jeré Trio of Enamel and Metal Butterflies, Mid-Century Modern A vibrant trio of Mid-Century Modern Curtis Jeré butterflies, crafted in enameled metal and mounted on sculptural wire stems. Each butterfly features a striking palette of vibrant oranges, yellows, and purples with beautifully marbled, hand-applied enamel that creates depth, luminosity, and movement. The trio varies in size and height, giving the composition a naturally dynamic, airborne feel. Originally designed as part of Jeré’s iconic wall and tabletop sculptures from the 1960s–70s, this set captures the playful sophistication and organic artistry the studio is celebrated for. Displayed in a glass vessel or arranged freely, these butterflies function as a captivating sculptural accent—perfect for collectors of Curtis Jeré, lovers of kinetic art, or anyone seeking a bold pop of color in a modern interior.

White Orb Sculpture
By J Schatz Studio
Located in Warren, MI
Pure elliptical orbs of white suspended by natural fibers capture shadows and throw reflections across a room. Composed of 34 glossy white stoneware orb shapes that are held in place by a hand-knotted jute rope. The orbs, which are handcrafted in the studio, are perfectly round before we high fire them in the kiln. At their peak temperature of 2200 °F they settle into an imperfect ellipse. It's a gesture to the handmade nature of ceramics that we complement with a flawless glossy bright white glaze. The White Orb Sculpture is a unique one-of-a-kind artwork.

Contemporary Large-Scale Outdoor Kinetic Concrete Sculpture and Installation
By Johnny Poux
Located in kingston, NY
Johnny Poux sculptures Johnny Poux’s large-scale kinetic concrete sculptures and installations explore the relationship between motion and mass, industry and nature. Each piece is made individually to order. Artist statement My work as an artist has been focused primarily on large-scale kinetic pieces that explore my unyielding fascination with simple machine principles, movement, and the beauty and physics of a large mass in motion. Working with industrial materials like concrete and steel, and occasionally combining these with natural forms or living things like trees, my work is often about the tension between man and nature and our technological footprint. I am drawn to creating large-scale work that moves, evokes feelings of wonder, is interactive, and alters our relationship to the world for a moment. I have built and installed 30 foot tall steel kinetic pieces that span a full 40’ circle as if in flight and have created 1000 lb. concrete pieces that ripple like water in the historic cement mines of Rosendale, NY. I have balanced and counter weighted a 55’ tall black walnut tree...

Plume Solar Chandelier, Contemporary Solar-Powered Lighting, Customizable
By Nina Edwards Anker
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Plume Solar chandelier, a customizable solar-powered lighting installation for the off-the-grid living room, comprises photovoltaic modules that power LED bulbs to illuminate feathers to provide ambient lighting. The piece aims to demystify PV technology by exposing its components in a legible manner, so that the electrical boards, wires and batteries of the PV modules are clearly visible and comprehensible. This off-the-grid solar-powered chandelier combines shimmering soft black feathers to counterpoint the reflective black photovoltaic panels. It also functions as a type of solar clock as it illuminates automatically at dusk, highlighting hourly solar and seasonal rhythms. The chandelier must be placed in front of a window to gather solar power. The Plume Solar Chandelier lowers electric bills, eliminates wires and outlets, offers multi-directional ambient light, and casts patterns on surrounding surfaces like wallpaper. It can be customized to each setting.   Solar Chandelier supports sustainable architecture by introducing the off-the-grid living room concept, where an ample amount of solar lighting Is placed near living room windows to eliminate the need for electric lighting. The solar pieces by nea studio...
