DESIGNER & ARTIST

Elin Gärdenfors

ABOUT HOLD

HOLD depicts a dog carrying a glowing LED tube.
The gesture is calm and restrained, yet charged with meaning.

This specific piece is inspired by the artist’s own dog, Snoop. The work reflects the light he brings into her life translated into a physical object.

Light becomes a symbol for care and attention, something held, protected, and shared within a home.

The object exists between sculpture and function.

It emits light, but it is the act of holding that defines it.

Dimensions: approx. H 300 × D 250 × W 150 mm

Material: 3D-printed recycled PLA

Light source: LED tube

What we do

PROCESS

Each piece is produced through slow additive manufacturing and finished by hand.

HOLD can be ordererd as it is, or customized to represent the customers personal pet, with or without LED light.

The artist strives to capture each individual animals beauty and unique expression. The process takes time, intentionally.

Material, form, and surface are treated with equal care.

No piece is rushed.

No piece is exactly the same.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

My work explores the space between functional objects and sculptural presence.

Much of my work is inspired by my dog Snoop; my italian greyhound whose presence has brought light into my daily life as well as reignited my creative process.

Through physical objects, I try to manifest the bond between humans and their pet. Inspired by the light, energy, and presence that they hold in space.
