These sculptures are meant to double as plant-pots you hang on the wall. They're called sconces, same as wall-mounted lamps. This example has a small, rather ratty recent transplant--that's so the fern wouldn't hide the shape. I like ferns, but normal pots take up so much room--with a bunch of these, you can have a whole wall of hanging greenery--nice in a stairwell, for example. I didn't invent this--sconces are centuries old. But they're rare in America, and the few I've seen were expensive, heavy, and hideous. Anyone want to market these in light, tough plastic?
