SOLIDIFIED is a curated exhibition by established designers with a strong focus on material. Join us during Milan Design Week 2024 and discover new pieces by Rive Roshan, Rick Tegelaar, Jesse Visser, Umut Yamac and Form Editions.

 SOLIDIFIED / origin and purpose
Matter can be in three states: solid, liquid and gas. The objects we use around us, that we live in and with, are usually made of solids. In the exhibition SOLIDIFIED we celebrate real solidified materials. In the world that is rapidly transforming and becoming more digitalised, more elusive and unpredictable, SOLIDIFIED wants to celebrate 'realness' in order to offer a 'hold'.

PAD Paris Design + Art

3-7 April 2024

Les Jardins des Tuileries, Paris

Mia Karlova, Booth 28

We are proud to be present at PAD Paris, represented by Mia Karlova. For this occasion we developed a special edition of the ‘Beacon of Light’. With a beautiful, all natural, smokey Quartz from Brazil.

All natural means that none of the crystal faces or parts of them have been cut nor polished. “Doubly terminated” refers the rare feature of the crystal showing a point on both sides. Normally crystals form in a way that they have a clear -uncrystalised, mostly broken- base on one side and a point on the other side.

This particular specimen stands out because of it high degree of transparency, its beautiful colour, its perfection and its remarkable lustre.  

‘Beacon of Light’ reflects the search for wandering and holding on. Like an anchor in the mist.

A boulder holds a sandblasted glass sphere balanced by a minimalistic custom-made pulley.

Creating tranquility in form and content.

At the booth of Mia Karlova Galerie we present another special edition of the ‘Beacon of Light’. With a beautiful, all natural, smokey Quartz from Brazil.

Salon Art+Design New York

9-13 November

Represented by Mia karlova Galerie

I’m thrilled that the ‘Beacon of Light’ will be on show at the famous Salon Art + Design, one of the leading world fairs presenting vintage, modern and collectible design and fine art in New York.

At the Salon Art +Design 2023 Mia Karlova Galerie will premiere a Special Edition of Jesse Visser’s Beacon of Light made with crystal rock. Beacon of Light is a sculptural piece consisting of a luminous sphere made from sanded glass, connected to a natural stone by a jute rope delicately hanging from a pulley – it is a comment on the fragile point of balance or fulcrum in a world of confusion and uncertainty. The stone is a unique doubly terminated milky quartz crystal created by nature. The rare combination of light green and milky pink color is caused by inclusions of tiny fuchsite crystals, a characteristic feature of crystals from this locality in Madagascar. Jesse’s object is both a lighthouse and an anchor, encouraging serenity in its viewer through its form and content.


GLUE 2023, 14/17 September

During GLUE amsterdam connected by design I will show pieces on two different locations.

The Arcadia chair for Satelliet Originals will be on show at Hotel Arena.

HAROLD CABINET AT DESIGN & DYNASTIE, 250 JAHRE HOFLEBEN ORANIEN-NASSAU
FULDA, GERMANY

The majestic look of the Harold Cabinet comes fully into its own in the setting of the Grand Summer Exhibition in Fulda.

2022 marks the 250th anniversary of the birth go King William I of Orange-Nassau. It is not a widely known fact, but before he became the first king of The Netherlands, from 1802 to 1806 he ruled over the principality of Nassau-Orange-Fulda in Germany - for this first king it all started in Fulda. The City of Fulda is taking this as an opportunity to present its major summer exhibition "Design & Dynastie. 250 Years of the House of Orange-Nassau” in the Historic Rooms of the City Palace. William Frederick of Orange-Nassau resided in Fulda from 1802 until 1806 and launched a number of groundbreaking societal innovations during this time. The exhibition focuses on the close ties between the Dutch royal family and Germany over the centuries, combining historical paintings, furniture, jewellery and everyday objects, some drawn from the royal family's archives, with modern art, design and fashion from the Netherlands.

‘VORM AAN DE VECHT’

From March 18th till September 25th, 2022

Triptych ‘Cogitatio Inanis’: an austere object stripped of frills, reduced to its essence, embedded in the serene and minimalist environment of Buitenplaats Doornburgh.

Buitenplaats Doornburgh is a special former monastery, built by architect Jan de Jong, student of architect and monk Dom Hans van der Laan, in the famous design language of the Bossche School. What makes it exceptionally unique is that the monastery as a whole has been preserved, including the characteristic furniture of Dom Hans van der Laan that contributes to the special atmosphere. The nature, architecture and history of this country estate still inspire today's makers.

TRIPTYCH 'Cogitatio Inanis’
This huge narrative work resemble its namesake wood-painted panels from medieval churches, but is a contemporary and daring statement of solid high-polished stainless-steel plates. Triptychs are used in the traditional sense to tell a story. This work, with the Latin title ‘Cogitatio inanis’ (best translated as ‘thoughtless mind’), is only about emptiness, reflection, and material.
From Friday March 18th, the exhibition Vorm aan de Vecht will open at Buitenplaats Doornburgh. Curator Nicole Uniquole puts special heritage in a new light with contemporary art and design. Well-known and emerging designers, artists and photographers will present contemporary work inspired by the layered history of the country estate.

We are please that our Sphaera table is part of the presentation ‘Cosmos’.

'This “Cosmos” exhibition reveals the work of designers who have conceptually, technically or poetically explored our Universe’s architecture and the hidden physical laws that govern it.From Albert Einstein’s general relativity to quantum theory, from gravity to the nature of space and time, from the micro to macro scales, our modern picture of the cosmos is brought to life through various design or architecture projects that take us well beyond these scientific roots, bearing witness to its mysteries and beauty.’

'LOW MOTION' at DDW

 

LOW MOTION
in reprise

Product and interior designers Jesse Visser, Thomas Eurlings, Geke Lensink and fashion label YOUASME MEASYOU (Mark van Vorstenbosch & Twan Janssen) presented their work together in one shared installation. Low Motion was succesfully presented during Fuorisalone Milano 2014 and is now part of the exhibition OPEN MIND at the Kazerne in Endhoven.
 

The exhibition OPEN MIND is from October 1 2014 to January 4 2015.
During the Dutch Design Week the Kazerne is open to all public.
 

LOW MOTION

"What unites us is the aspiration to make products that transcend time and become part of your life. This requires quality in design, responsible choices of materials and production and a clear and personal signature. LOW MOTION aims to fuse conviction, emotion and design."

Imagine a dimly lit space where occasionally dropped light effects and abstract movies beamed on the walls will accidentally and indirectly draw attention to all the different objects and elements placed in the space. An ambient sound score emphasizes these cinematic sensations and the silence in between: LOW MOTION.”

Beyond ‘Dutch Design’, yet undeniably rooted in Dutch cultural heritage these designers all share clearly recognizable characteristics; at first sober and simple in appearance their designs reveal themselves as expressive in their use of materials and clever functionality.

Everyone’s pragmatic approach has it’s own individual poetic side which will be highlighted during this collective show.

WORKSHOP OF WONDERS presents 'Dutch Materialism'

Dutch Materialism

September 8th 2013 - November 23rd, 2013

This second exhibition in the new gallery of Workshop of Wonders in the Domstraat is about Dutch materialism.

It features the Dutch designers Geke Lensink, Jesse Visser (including their joint work for the eQ+ label) and Marc van Nederpelt and Wiebe Boonstra with their DUM collection. Different types of materials, their finishes and production techniques play a central role in the creation of these innovative contemporary furniture and lighting designs.
