Decorating With Metal Art by Picci Designs: a Creative Evolution

When it comes to art, the creative process does not end. It starts with the artist, but when he sets down his tools, the next step shifts to you – the viewer. How you interpret the art is your contribution to the creative process, as is what you buy and how you choose to display it in your home. In fact, think of your home as a canvas – a three-dimensional canvas that needs three-dimensional art. Getting creative means collecting from a wide variety of mediums, and there are none better to decorate empty spaces in your home with than metal art.

Metal art dates back thousands of years, a tradition carried on today by contemporary artists like Laszlo Tihany of Picci Designs. A world-renowned sculptor from Hungary whose work is in private collections all over the world, Tihany’s metal sculpture pieces are as diverse as his background and include freestanding metal sculptures, metal wall art such as tribal masks, metal wall sculptures, wall clocks, and mirrors. In collaboration with Laszlo’s partner – award-winning artist Linda Colino – Picci Designs’ metal pieces have just the right balance of color, movement and drama that every home needs.

The most important thing to remember when decorating with metal art is to match the right room with the right piece. For instance, you probably don’t want to display a red, five-foot metal sculpture in a small guest bathroom with a lavender floral theme. However, it just might be the perfect place for smaller pieces of metal wall art –purple metal wall sculptures, for instance, like wall clocks or mirrors. Reserve that tall, freestanding metal sculpture for the living room or den where you can give it the space it needs and deserves. Set it close to a window or lamp to maximize the play of light and shadows unique to sculpture art.

If one metal wall art piece is too small to fill a large space, try clustering several of them in a group. For instance, tribal mask metal wall sculptures are just the right size for three or more to fill a big wall. Hallways are a great place to go for the gallery look, which involves hanging your collection of artwork in a row with a foot or two of space between them depending on the size of each piece. Try keeping the pieces relatively similar in size and theme – all your variations of wall clocks, for example, or metal mirrors.

Just remember, the creative process of decorating with metal art by Picci Designs should never stop. What works best in one room now just might work better in another room later. Much like the artist’s work itself, decorating with metal art by Picci Designs is a creative evolution.
