Defined by concentric hammering of copper, the table forms a supporting surface that, when duplicated on its underside, becomes the base. The gap between the two sheets not only accommodates books but, as a deliberate gesture, presents both surfaces as independent, free-standing elements—identical in form.
Copper, tempered by fire, abandons its flat form to occupy three-dimensional space through human manipulation. In its finish, the marks of the material’s production process become part of the final piece.

InquireMATERIAL & FINISH:
OBJ-06 is produced from recycled copper in collaboration with master artisans in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacán. The material is heated in fire until it becomes malleable, then shaped through controlled, repetitive hammering. Rather than relying on industrial processes, form develops gradually through this manual work, allowing the material to be stretched, compressed, and stabilized by hand.
The piece retains the traces of this process—subtle variations, tonal shifts, and surface irregularities—that reflect both the intensity of the work and the nature of the material itself. Once the raw piece is formed, it is transported to Valle de Chalco, Estado de México, where final adjustments, assembly, and finishing are completed.
