In an age of the instantaneous, where images have become accepted placeholders for real things, Be Patient is a call for an attentive appreciation of the physical.
Spanning over six feet in length, Be Patient’s scale lends it a physical presence that puts it in dialogue with its space and occupants. Be Patient is a lasting object that will develop and reveal its nuances over time. The hand-polished aluminum exterior subtly reflects the surroundings while a beam of light beneath pulls the eye upwards. Hidden within, the delicate intricacies of a central blade as well as baffles, diffuse the light. Be Patient asserts the importance of the physical objects around us not merely as accessories, but as companions, and as reflections of ourselves.
