SOLARIS
Inspired by the magnificence and beauty of the sun, Solaris is a stunning wall-mounted sculpture that radiates energy and strength.

Client Reviews
Inspired by the timeless appeal of the sun, Solaris presents a complementary form that hints at a refined, almost celestial design. This large wall-mounted sculpture is distinguished by its intricate delicacy, featuring fine lines spreading out in a lively, branching pattern. Its bold, luminous shape adds an uplifting energy to any space, whether indoors or outdoors. Unlike conventional sculptures that take up floor space, Solaris blends seamlessly into its surroundings, turning vertical surfaces into dynamic canvases of texture and shadow that shift harmoniously with natural light throughout the day.
The core ring at Solaris centre provides an opportunity for personalisation, allowing you to engrave meaningful words or messages. This detail adds a personal touch, turning Solaris from a mere object into a unique keepsake. Alternatively, leaving this area blank emphasises a minimalist and eye-catching appearance, with the detailed lattice as the main feature.
Sculpture Information
-
To ensure your artwork is positioned exactly as intended and remains secure for years to come, all of my sculptures arrive fully ready to install.
Depending on the specific piece, your sculpture will come equipped with either stainless steel fixing lugs or an attached base plate featuring pre-drilled holes. This hardware allows the artwork to be firmly bolted directly into your chosen foundation, guaranteeing maximum support, stability, safety, and security in its new environment.
To perfectly elevate and showcase your sculpture, plinths are available in any size up to 3ft. If your site requires a grander scale, alternative sizes can be crafted at an additional cost.
Please contact me for more information or to discuss the specific display requirements for your space.

How often a piece requires cleaning will naturally depend on its specific location and surrounding environment. However, to preserve its finish and ensure your sculpture continues to look its best, an occasional wipe-down is all that is required.
Simply use mild, warm soapy water applied with a soft, damp cotton cloth or sponge to gently remove any naturally accumulated dust or dirt.
To ensure you have all the information you need to look after your new artwork for years to come, a detailed sculpture care guide will be emailed to you upon the purchase of your piece.

Every sculpture is crafted with high-quality 316 marine-grade stainless steel. As a premium, high-strength material, this specific grade offers the highest level of resistance to rusting and tarnishing. This ensures the artwork can comfortably withstand harsh weather and maintain its striking finish, even in demanding coastal locations.
The majority of my mirrored sphere balls are fabricated in 304 grade stainless steel providing a beautiful presence in any outdoor space.

As a distinctive characteristic of my artwork, I offer a unique, hand-etched flowing pattern design that beautifully accentuates the metal's light-reflecting properties. This bespoke texture catches the light as the day changes, bringing a dynamic energy to the piece. Alternatively, a classic flat brushed finish is also available across all sculptures for a clean, timeless aesthetic.
If you wish to introduce a specific palette into your space, every piece can be commissioned with a custom powder-coated finish. Guided entirely by your personal preference, you can select any desired hue to complement your architectural or garden design. Each professionally applied powder-coated finish is crafted with care and comes with a 5-year guarantee, ensuring the artwork's surface remains vibrant and protected.
