Artist of the Day: Reclaimed Metal and Bicycle Chandelier - Carolina Fontoura Alzaga

reclaimed metal and bicycle chandelier facaro

I love this artist, her aesthetic, her process, as much as I love this chandelier.

This chandelier makes me want to sell my house, buy a small, abandoned warehouse, remodel and decorate around it.

It would be one part industrial, one part vintage modern, one part French sass. I can see the chandelier in the living room hanging off center, over a fuchsia velvet sofa, with this as the featured artwork.

What about you? What art inspires you?
