Ornamental Plasterwork - Kathy Dalwood




Ornamental


Introducing the collection 

This on-going collection was conceived as a contemporary alternative to traditional ornamental plasterwork and external relief decoration. 

Architectural friezes and decorative plasterwork have been used to embellish the facades of buildings and to introduce a relief decorative element to interiors since classical times. The motifs in these collections refer at times to imagery characteristic of the architecture of the past – from the Baroque to the Modernist movements – but distinctively and in contrast to traditional sculpted reliefs, the motifs are indented to the surface.
