Markus Haase, Wormed Bronze 5-Arm Chandelier, DE

About the Item

Inspired by nature and the human form, Markus Haase’s Sculptural Series sconces and chandeliers are composed of bronze or wood asymmetrical butterfly forms. Each hand carved form is embedded with white onyx, encasing dimmable LED lights, offering a warm, perennial glow as the LEDs emit light softly through the stone. Combining a mastery of traditional sculpting techniques with a contemporary, material-driven approach to design, Haase is one of the only artists working today, crafting unique works in bronze. Rather than using the casting process as a mechanism for producing multiples, each of his bronze and onyx light sculptures is completely one-of-a-kind. Haase is quickly growing a reputation as a master jeweler for architectural accessories. The series includes bespoke chandeliers and sconces. In 2013, Haase launched his first series of sculptural design exclusively with Todd Merrill Studio. Since then, his work has attracted the attention of designers, critics, and collectors worldwide. Haase creates unique works of art, sculptural pieces of furniture, and lighting design that demonstrate his sculpting virtuosity through his works that imbue wood, metal, and stone with a remarkable sense of fluidity and movement. Carved wood and marble assume the qualities of drapery, while his dexterity in combining these elements with dynamic LED technology defines a new artistry for the twenty-first century. As Todd Merrill describes, “Markus Haase is not making a piece of furniture or lighting that looks like art… He is a sculptor making art that serves functional ends.” As Haase works on a commission basis, custom designs may be requested.
