Counterweight unfolds as a totemic arrangement of luminous forms, where radiant color and polished volume create a poised yet spirited ascent. A rounded, high-gloss orange base grounds the structure with luminous warmth, rising into a compact violet sphere that serves as a chromatic hinge. A short teal cylinder extends upward, guiding the eye to a shallow, chartreuse bowl whose radiant orange interior intensifies the palette. At the summit, the vessel leans gently off-axis, introducing a controlled asymmetry that enlivens the silhouette while maintaining the sculpture’s careful equilibrium.

Cedric Mitchell's approach to modern funk design is defined by bold colors, playful forms, and a dynamic blend of modernist and postmodernist influences. It challenges conventional aesthetic norms, prioritizing individuality and self-expression. Inspired by retro pop culture, this style embraces eccentricity and spontaneity, resulting in a visually striking and immersive experience that feels both nostalgic and futuristic.

Each piece is individually hand-blown in Los Angeles, resulting in subtle variations that highlight the artist’s process and the material’s fluid nature.
