Harry Allen is inspired by the beauty of everyday objects. By casting natural forms, Allen thoughtfully reimagines objects and gives them new uses. Each object is chosen with care and often a comic sensibility. Here, four casts of the designer’s hand provide a unique take on the idea of a shelf, vase and hook.
Made from marble, resin.
