ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Puk & I wanted to make an impressive art piece. Not only the size but also the nature and the materials used were of interest. Now the elephant is in itself a very special appearance so it required an artistic addition. We have taken back to the ancient art of folding from China: the origami. This art form emerged not long after the discovery of paper (100 AD). Instead of paper, We have used stainless steel and added a layer of gold on it. The gold is of the highest quality and is also used for example in the Vatican and is 23.75 carats. It can therefore be outside but also inside on the wall or on a windowsill. The design has cachet. The golden elephant has dynamism, arouses curiosity and is impressive. The sleek lines fit in a modern setting and the gold gives the necessary style in a classic environment. The golden elephant is robust and comes into its own in any place. The gold elephant can be made in any size depending on where she needs to impress. The large version of the photograph (80 x 55 x 13 cm) price on request. any size possible, please take into account a delivery time of 2 months or more. specs material: stainless steel and gold leaf technique: laser cut and hand applied gold leaf. RvS sheets of 2 mm 9 kilogram 80 cm breed / width 55 cm hoog / height 13 cm diep / depth gold leaf by Noris Platingold / Dubbeltorengoud

Olivier van Wijk ( 1971, Geleen, The Netherlands ) creates sculptures, mixed media and design. With a penchant for old craft and the combination with new techniques Olivier van Wijk provides a growing collection. His work has a sleek design language with a nod to the manual details. The work takes to the flora and fauna , the fantasy world and man as inspiration. His artwork tells us of transience and eternity . Contemporary superlatives dating back to long before our era. The dynamics in the work of Van Wijk follows its own rules and sequence . The tactile properties of the materials with which Olivier Van Wijk works are of great importance . Sometimes the material is thus decisive for the shape of its operation is just the contrast. Favorite material to work with Bronze, Stainless steel, Paper and Glass. My father Dick van Wijk graduated at the art academy in 1971. I'm the second generation with the fortunate position to have access to a high end clientele, build by my mother and art gallery owner Mariska Dirkx.
