LYFAIRS x GORDON GU Double Peak Dining Table

The work "Symphony of Crystal and Stone" draws its creative inspiration from the various stones that emerge from the surface of a small stream. These stones are so ordinary and commonplace, yet upon closer inspection, they possess a profound poetic quality, as if the stones have shattered the tranquillity of the water's surface, yet remain in perfect harmony. This artwork is supported by stones and adorned with a transparent crystal tabletop, symbolizing the masculine strength of the stones, which sustains the gentle and tender surface of the water, akin to a woman. Together, they form a symbiotic relationship in art, where their fusion is both commonplace and unexpectedly surprising, embodying the cultural essence of "art deriving from life, surpassing life." The work seems to embody the Zen concept of "emptiness and tranquillity." Here, transient and fleeting elements are absent, replaced by the eternal presence in solidified time, where only the enduring essence of stone and water remains.
