EWE Studio in collaboration with Nouvel Limited produced a special golden edition of Magma lighting fixtures for Design. The process began with creating molds varying in size and scale, hand carved in volcanic stone by local stonemasons. The volcanic stone was chosen for the molds as it is not affected by the heat of the blown glass, due to its origin. Being an artisanal process, the shape, thickness and tonality differs, as a result giving unique characteristics to each one of the Magma ‘bubbles’. The ethereal golden light is generated through acid finish that was applied on the amber glass surface, together with the hand hammered brass surface contained within the bubbles. About EWE Studio EWE is a design studio based in Mexico City, devoted to the preservation and advancement of Mexico’s rich artisan heritage, while embracing new mediums and languages for the execution of limited-edition sculptural and functional objects. With a desire to reflect tradition as part of the natural flow of design, EWE praises diverse techniques, blends primitive roughness with pristine surfaces, and uses natural empathic materials that appeal to the senses. Mexican history is EWE’s inspiration for forging new ideas that have substance and meaning. EWE Studio was founded by Manu Bañó, Age Salajõe and Héctor Esrawe in 2017. Since then the studio has exhibited at Zona Maco Art Fair 2018 & 2019, Design Miami/ Basel , Switzerland 2018 and at Abierto Mexicano de Diseño in Mexico City the same year, where they held their solo exhibition ‘Masa Crítica’. The show received international recognition and welcomed over 3,000 guests within two weeks, despite to taking place in the city’s one of the most dangerous neighborhoods. In 2019, EWE exhibited with MASA Galeria at their inaugural exhibition ‘Collective/ Collectible’ as well as the galleries ’Smalls’ show, and at their latest exhibition ‘Recover/Uncover’ in February 2020 in Mexico City. EWE Studio shows its work with The Future Perfect and Galerie Half...
