Poltronova OFELIA PMMA photo holder with marble base

Ofelia is part of a series of small mirrors and a photo holder by Superstudio.‎ The series began with the idea of using scraps from the processing of marble.‎ An operation of bricolage, rather than creation, as the Florence-based group stated at the time.‎ Careful milling of the irregular marble piece makes it become the precious support for a sheet of methacrylate to use as a photo frame.‎ Ofelia, Spera and Vanitas, ahead of their time, represent a project of transformation capable of granting a new, refined aesthetic to industrial scrap.‎ Materials: Fluorescent orange–magenta PMMA and marble Colors: Photo holder: fluorescent orange/magenta Base: Rosso Francia Further info from manufacturer on OFELIA Poltronova
