Power, Corruption, Lies
Collection Narrative:
Introducing a limited-edition collaboration with Sessions Arts Club and artist Jonny Gent within Frieze. Developed in response to Gent’s drawings and the restaurant’s immersive installation, each piece reimagines everyday gestures through sculptural form, from ceramic vases adorned with opalite bows to lapis lazuli pins that connect the elemental with the refined.
