Do You Love Someone Who Loves Art?
It’s that time of year when we want to give those we love meaningful gifts. Art is a very intimate gift but it is scary to choose a piece because Art is so personal and so permanent. However, if you take the chance and buy someone Art, you are giving them a gift that says you know them on a deeper, more committed level.
Giving abstract as opposed to figurative or realistic art avoids the pitfall that a particular person, place or object maybe disliked by the recipient. The abstract piece can represent memories, feelings or sensations for your own relationship.
The T Barny Mobius sculptures do this. The Mobius form is known for having one side/one edge. Follow the line of a T Barny piece and you will come back to where you started without lifting your finger. All of T Barny’s stone pieces contain this Mobius form. Some are more complex in their shapes…. just like many relationships. T Barny named his classic Mobius ‘Catena’ that means ‘chain of connected ideas.’ It can say to someone that you are connected to them, that your relationship is eternal.
Circo, another T Barny mobius sculpture is also reproduced in jewelry.
There is another advantage to giving sculpture as a gift. You are not asking the recipient to replace something already on their walls. They get to pick a space where it best fits in their home. And it doesn’t even have to match their sofa!!!!
