The Mobius Vessel Series pays homage to the visionary Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi, whose minimalist forms and integration of materials have long inspired Kenney. He challenges us to "not try to make materials speak our language; we must go with them to the point where others will understand their language."
Like Bancusi, Kenney strives to create harmony between mediums, merging them into singular, contemplative forms. Each vessel in the series explores the elemental elegance of the ovoid. The dialogue between engraved openings, silvered exteriors, and precision-turned bases is central to the work and invites meditation on balance, texture, and tension. The forms are intentionally reductive, emphasizing purity of shape and the interplay of transparency and opacity, coolness and warmth.
The Mobius concept refers not only to the abstract geometry of continuous surfaces, but also to the continuum of craft traditions. The Mobius Vessel Series lives at the intersection of disciplines and reflects Kenney's ongoing inquiry into form, material, and the human impulse to transform.
