Barco Basket Sculptures

Barco, which means ‘boat’ in Spanish, is the result of the creative explorations and professional weaving expertise of Idoia Cuesta, a master basketry artisan based in Galicia. Idoia intertwined recyclable monofilament fishing lines with natural rattan to produce these luxuriously sculptural objects that challenge the limits of traditional basketry craft. The interplay of textures in the overlapping materials to form a boat-like vessel invites closer inspection, drawing the eyes to the intricate woven details allowing Barco to be displayed as a visually captivating sculpture by itself. Available in two sizes, the Barco sculptures reflect splendour both when presented alone or in their complete pair.
