# Organic-Inspired Sculptures 'Organic' at the Carpenters Workshop Gallery Features Various Artists By Jamie Danielle Munro | Published 2014-05-26 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carpenters-workshop-gallery References: [designboom](http://www.designboom.com/design/carpenters-workshop-gallery-organic-exhibition-05-26-2014/) & [carpentersworkshopgallery](http://carpentersworkshopgallery.com/en/Exhibitions) Put on at the [Carpenters Workshop Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crossing-over) in Paris, the exhibition titled 'Organic' features the work of various artists, and works with the idea that even [sculptures can reflect living matter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cromatica). One piece for example appears to have realistic, leather-like skin. The work was done by the Campana Brothers, and is actually a cabinet that could provide a modern touch to one's living room. According to DesignBoom, "the artists have imagined functional sculptures whose shapes refer to the complexity of the organic reality, creating a new vocabulary through their reinterpretation of mother nature’s elements." Other pieces in the collection include [a chair and a side table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earth-to-people-furniture-collection) that could be confused for the lower half of a person. These pieces make one think about the similarities between the things people build and the resemblance to organic forms.
