Arco tray is encountered as a work of absolute geometric precision. Fabricated in steel, the composition takes the form of a circle circumscribed by two arcs. Architectural in character, the tray is defined by the dialogue between mass and a series of meticulously refined voids: an opposing pair of slender vertical gaps between the two arcs and a rhythmic sequence of horizontal spaces between the half circles and the plane.

The tray is intentionally not sculptural. Its unequivocal sense of heft derives instead from its quality of stasis and quiet purposefulness
