This gap allows natural light to interact with the stainless steel base, causing the reflections and shadow play to shift as the sun moves across your room. When I began working with metal, I wanted to move away from purely rigid, cold structures. In this series, I combine industrial, mirror-polished 304-grade stainless steel with layered polycarbonate wings to create a study in movement. These pieces are designed to be focal points, capturing that split second of flight rather than a static image. For collectors in Mumbai, my team handles the professional mounting directly. For those outside the city, I provide full-scale paper templates to ensure your installer gets the placement exactly right on the first try. Since I use reflective finishes like silver, gold, and rose gold, these sculptures react to the surrounding environment, essentially absorbing the colors and light of your living room or lobby. Whether you are considering a piece like 'Wings of Resilience' or a custom installation, the material choices are intentional. The steel provides the structural 'resilience' while the polycarbonate wings offer the vibrant, 'butterfly' transformation. If you are curious about how a specific finish would sit against your existing wall texture or color, we should talk about the spatial requirements. ## About Hitesh Gilder I moved from the business world to sculpture because I needed to make things with my hands. I treat my Butterfly series as a dialogue between the industrial strength of stainless steel and the delicate, fleeting nature of life. My goal is to create work that feels alive, shifting and reflecting your space in real-time.
