Milla Vaahtera Decorative Objects

Milla Vaahtera is a Finnish contemporary artist and designer, born in 1981 and working in Helsinki, Finland. The themes of her works extend from body image and sexuality to intuition and dialogues in the creative process. She graduated with a master’s of arts degree in 2010, from Aalto University, the School of Arts, Design and Architecture. She did her BA studies in Lahti Institute of Design, in 2008. Vaahtera’s work is featured in several exhibitions at galleries and museums, including the Design Museum Finland, Lokal Gallery and UU Market. She is most known for her dialogue series, Mobiles and Stabiles, in which she combines bold glass parts with delicate brass. The process of making dialogue pieces is based on dialogue and improvisation. She is passionate to revive the Finnish heritage of glass-blowing and in ensuring that the young generation of makers get ample opportunities to deepen their skills.

Ligne Light 2, Pink Neon, White Glass, by Sabine Marcelis, Glass Table Lamp

By Sabine Marcelis

Located in Beverly Hills, CA

The Ligne sculptures were made during a summer artist residency at Pilchuck school of glass. As with many of Sabine Marcelis's explorations with light, these objects were born from a curiosity to explore how a material volume can interact with a single line of light and in this case also how two very different ways of working with glass can elevate eachother. Together with talented neon benders, Sabine Marcelis hand-bent each of the neon lights to wrap around the various glass volumes, accentuating their mass and in turn, the glass volumes filtering the light. Dutch-Kiwi designer Sabine Marcelis’s work is at the forefront of contemporary material innovation in product and installation design. She works with glass manufacturers and more, forging partnerships across her industry to bring her ambitiously experimental projects to fruition. Marcelis’s focus is on allowing happenstance sensory experiences to emerge by juxtaposing combinations of unlikely materials and colors. She was educated at the Design Academy Eindhoven and since founding her eponymous studio in 2011 in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, she has built a remarkable roster of clients in fashion, architecture and art. She has created signature pieces for the likes of Rem Koolhaas’s architecture firm OMA, high-fashion labels Fendi and Isabel Marant and luxury beauty brand Aesop. She has also exhibited at the Salone del Mobile in Milan and won Wallpaper* magazine’s Designer of the Year award for 2020. Marcelis was invited to create a sculptural intervention for the interiors of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lily Reich...
