Selva is part of a series of sculptural forms handcrafted from a single piece of burl oak, wood turned and hollowed out on several axes. The pieces are carved, inlaid with pewter and patinated. Through the pieces, Christophe Nancey celebrates vitality and vulnerability, the duality of pristine natural spaces. A symbol of life, the form is inspired by the shape of a heart.
