Design

Jonathan Prince approaches design not as a departure from sculpture but as its natural evolution. His practice, long rooted in a philosophical reflection on matter, balance, and transformation, now extends into forms that inhabit everyday life while retaining the conceptual depth of his monumental works.

For Prince, this transition is not a rupture but a continuum. The new objects are not simply functional; they are living extensions of an established artistic language. They carry the resonance of his large-scale pieces, echoing the tension between unity and fragmentation, solidity and vulnerability. Forces such as gravity, balance, and metamorphosis that animate his sculptures are distilled into a more intimate scale, offering direct engagement with the essence of his inquiry.

Design, in this sense, becomes a complementary dimension of sculpture. These creations are not decorative but integral fragments of a broader vision. Just as his sculptures reveal the whole within the parts and the parts within the whole, each object maintains its autonomy while contributing to a larger exploration that unites art with life, and form with thought.
