Sculpting Light
In the arches under the railway tracks of East London, the studio of Vezzini and Chen is a sanctuary of creativity and craftsmanship. Stepping into their workspace is like entering an enchanted realm where nature's wonders are transformed into exquisite works of art.
Cristina Vezzini and Stan Chen are the masterminds behind this atelier. This design duo has garnered international acclaim for their sculptural lighting and installation pieces, which seamlessly blend hand-carved ceramics and blown glass. With a shared passion for nature's intricate details, they draw inspiration from the organic forms found in seeds, pinecones, and microscopic views of plants.
Their creations are not merely objects of beauty; they are evocative pieces that transport the viewer to state of calm, like diving into the depths of the ocean. Whilst filming in their studio, we were captivated by the sheer artistry and dedication that permeates every aspect of their creative process. From the meticulous selection of materials to the delicate handcrafting techniques, every step is infused with a deep respect for the natural world and a commitment to craft.
