RYOAN-JI Inspired by the Japanese Zen temple Ryoan-ji. Mareike Lienau has designed a wool object that pays homage to the concept and proportions of the temple’s stone garden. Lienau’s Ryoan-ji-Object hones in on this idea of the blind spot, reflecting on just how impactful and ever-present that blind spot is in any interaction or endeavor. The design’s circular element, a woolen nest, symbolizes the blind spot while also offering a space to sit and contemplate, while the graphic lines evoke the rock garden area. It is a reminder to consider anew what one does and does not see at any moment, given the respective time, location, and culture in which we find ourselves.
Mareike Lienau designs carpet objects and unique carpets for her label Lyk Carpet, which are hand knotted in Nepal. Her mission is to reinterpret craft and to bring it closer to young people. The superficial functionality of the She tries to radically question the superficial functionality of the carpet. Away from the rectangle Mareike wants to positive, lustful and imaginative the form & the craft, the material new, unseen and exaggerated show.
Her approach asks: ‘What is contemporary about craft?‘ ,“Many people don’t really relate to products anymore. Mass production has led to today’s throwaway society. I want to contribute to raising people’s awareness, prompting them to think about products: how they are made and the resources involved; to generate values. I decided to do this through supporting the preservation of a cultural heritage, and by designing authentic objects. Contemplating and experiencing this artistic craft leads to new insights and points of view and enriches communication.With my textile posters and Pouf_Characters for example I am inviting people to ac- quaint themselves with a value creation chain, and to think about global responsibility.“.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
