If you’re looking for a functional artwork, then the PIEGA speaker painted by artist Conor McCreedy might be just for you.
Speakers, especially larger ones, often take a prominent place in the living or listening room. So why not make them beautiful as well? Of course, what is considered “beautiful” is highly subjective. However, the PIEGA columns painted by artist Conor McCreedy are visually appealing in their own right. The floorstanding speakers, painted in shades of blue, symbolize the melting ice caps resulting from ongoing climate changes. With a bit of imagination, you can see drops of melting water trickling away from the more solid part of the painting.
The art speakers were first showcased at the recent Art Basel expo over the weekend. If you’d like to have a pair in your home, they come with a price tag of €100,000.
