MUGWORT DREAM is a cast concrete cabinet, with plant relief imprints, and fish and shell motifs. A surreal dreamy setting of imagery where the mugwort herb is used in the cast. Mugwort has seen continuous use in many cultures throughout the world as a medicinal, spiritual, and culinary ingredient since at least the Iron Age. The piece is from a 2021 collection of unique cast concrete cabinets and furniture by the artist Stefan Buxbaum that evoke a surprising sensation in contrast to the softness and sensibility of nature and plant specimens cast onto them.

The cupboards of Stefan Buxbaum - a casting and concrete expert - are technical feats: the corpus is cast in one piece, in a lightweight technique. For his emblematic plant models, the artist applies his chosen specimens and petrifies those paragons of beauty as permanent reliefs onto the surfaces. Suitable for outdoors.
