Kumkum Fernando
Rockets to Luna is Kumkum Fernando’s latest body of work and marks his first time creating in 2D. These pieces tell the story of an intergalactic journey to reach a loved one through six rockets, each of which fails to reach its destination. Every rocket represents memories that were intended but never realized.
each sculptural form includes aged brass which is chemically treated at Studio Reborn in Saigon. The brass is then coated to preserve the patina. These brass elements form the unique features of each character. Eyes, antennae, mouths and arms are embellished with metal.
