Serpentine
Bina Baitel shows the first piece of her Serpentine collection, exceptional objects between art and design, inspired by reptilian universe.
The creator tells the story about a snake walking around into the space and circling its prey. The piece enhances a dance whose the end remains in suspens.
A piece of design-art-object whose the material reveals itself by an exclusive work of sculpted concrete, result of the Bina Baitel’s work of experimentations and of the manufacturer and craftsman Silians’ know-how of excellence.
The table uses the snake’s figure, its movements and its power and winds around a glass tray, to immobilize and raise it. As a frozen sloughing , the animal reference is contrasted by geometrical lines to improve the movements and turns of the snake.
