In a London Gallery, Grace Prince Explores the Appeal of Fragments and Fragility
How do you hold absence? How do you embody something that's missing, or give shape and weight to a fleeting phantom? The six limited-edition pieces in Grace Prince’s new furniture collection — called Held Absence and made exclusively for London's Béton Brut gallery, where it's currently on view — all explore this paradox. The themes of absence and fragility that color this collection invoke their seeming opposites, presence and strength, while also raising the question: Are they so opposite after all?
