flowers are intrinsically connected with composition and earth. Influenced by varied vessels from past to present such as the dutch tulip vase and ikebana, in this series, rocks are turned into sceneries for holding flowers. The extracted core cylinders generate functional segments, composition and landscape. With few interventions and elements, the designs parade with how theatrical and natural a vase can be. Based in antwerp, studio do is a stone cutting atelier founded by dana seachuga and octave vandeweghe. These two creatives work independently: dana as a jewellery maker and octave as an artist. For studio do they joined forces and share their creative visions and expertise. Driven by their affection for stone cutting, they research the material and cultural role of (gem)stones within the realm of functional objects. Using basic interventions, shapes and aesthetics, they try to search for the minimal action necessary to give a rock a (traditional) function. Studio do works on design projects and takes commissions related to stone, art, design objects and jewellery. Label & labour stand along each other as one, becoming inseparable. See less
