MATTHEW LAPENTA

Matthew began to explore emoji as a sculptural object in 2013.  Bringing the digital icons into the third dimension in traditional mediums such as bronze and stainless steel. Collaborating with k.olin tribu, Matthew continues his exploration of traditional mediums with porcelain.  

 
"Pray Hands Emoji" is an iconic image that represents many different things to many different people across the world.  Words like respect, gratitude and honor, come to mind when using the emoji. We hope this sculpture brings all of these high vibrational words into your life.
