Ukrainian Neo-Folklore. « Ce langage contemporain du design naît de racines qui remontent à des millénaires, jusqu’aux temps préchrétiens. L’une des clés de lecture du néo-folklore ukrainien repose, pour moi, sur quatre éléments naturels : la Terre, le Feu, le Vent et l’Eau. Chaque objet en interprète la force intemporelle — à travers la matière, la forme ou l’idée, » — Commissaire du projet Sana Moreau

🔥Luccino Light Sculptures collection, 2025
Designers: Valerii Kuznetsov & Otto Winken (Olexandr Chykurov), Smith & Winken
The Luccino collection of light sculptures represents a new direction in Smith & Winken’s work. Luccino explores the interaction of light, form, and space, where the malleability of copper engages in dialogue with light. These objects have no limits: they can be placed on various surfaces, both vertical and horizontal, shaped into any line form, and scaled to any size, creating a sense of infinite space. Luccino embodies a reimagining of fire – alive, constantly changing, and creative rather than destructive.
Materials: Metal, copper, LED
