Starting with a handmade knitted and woven textile structure, each piece is strengthened with epoxy and finished with a fuzzy flocked coating. Myceda Side Table is paired with a fused glass top with an organic profile.
The Reef Series combines an innovative exploration of textile materiality with a refreshing colour scheme and warm tactility. The unique knitting and casting process brings the pieces to life, evocative of coral reefs and underwater life. Due to the movement of the textile during the casting process, each piece flows in a unique way. The series exists in the space between creature and object, similar to how sea corals and anemones occupy the mystical space between plant and animal. With their flocked surface finish and linear form language they combine the aesthetics of digital texturing with handmade craft.
About the artist
Sarah Roseman and Barry Llewellyn are designers from Canada and Ireland respectively who are both based in The Netherlands. They met at the Design Academy Eindhoven where their passions for thought provoking objects combined to create collaborative works in addition to their own practices.Creating present day works from a speculative but probably context of resource depletion such as Fluid Furniture raises questions in a tangible but playful way. They want to allow people to think about these ideas through materiality.
