Totemic

For its European and Alcova debut, Andrea Claire Studio transforms room C9 at Casa Delle Suore into an immersive installation of light. Totemic—floor-to-ceiling pendants and standing lamps with gilded, silvered and papered finishes—creates a luminous moment in the historic space. Like totems, these pieces are vessels of meaning: objects that connect people and space. Visitors move around three iconic forms—Moon, August, Sage and Diamond—each glowing and reflecting warm radiance. A new cast glass side table, introduced at Alcova, nestles among the totems. Light becomes architecture. Objects become ritual.
