CUSTOM METAL LIGHTBOX FRAMES
Part of my interest in Art is not only the Art itself, but also the framing of the Art. Historically, some of the frames from the 16-17thcentury were made with hand carved wood and were created to specifically complement the Art within. I’ve taken that and created a more modern take on the relationship between frame and the Art. In this case, designing and creating a metal frame that has its own dimension and perspective that works seamlessly with the Art that is also a lightbox. Each of these pieces has an LED strip lighting the inside to illuminate and create a calm effect that is almost interactive with the observer.

CUSTOM METAL FRAMES
Redefining connecting Art to the frame. This new series shows an early design where we are powder coating two colors on the frame. Using stripes to add color around the frames. we then created three abstract Art collections to work within these metal frames, where you have a combined modern abstract aesthetic using Art and frame together. www.artemaison.com www.naturalcuriosities.com
