FEYZA KEMAHLIOGLU
New York, NY
Inspired by the architecture and culture of her native Istanbul, Feyza Kemahlioglu has created a unique lighting collection entitled Pillars of Meerschaum. Meerschaum (German for “seafoam”) is a soft white clay mineral found mainly in Eskisehir, a small city in central Turkey. Master Turkish craftsman carve the Meerschaum with intricate patterns and perforations to diffuse the light. The stone is then combined with handblown glass and brass elements created in New York. The blown glass compliments the detailing of the Meerschaum with the addition of delicate textures made with cane and gold leaf.
By taking this antiquated material and giving it a contemporary aesthetic and function, Feyza marries the old and the new to create timeless designs that are studies into the juxtaposition of tradition and modernity.

St. Louis, MO
Daniel Shapiro is a lighting and furniture designer based in St. Louis, Missouri, working primarily in clay. His work blends functionality with sculptural playfulness, a sensibility shaped by two decades as a graphic designer and Art Director. Translating ideas from the screen into three-dimensional form, Daniel’s pieces are at once tactile, graphic, and expressive.
Originally from a small town in Missouri, Daniel’s path has taken him through Miami, New York, and Los Angeles, each city leaving its mark on his creative voice. He discovered clay as his medium in 2017 and founded his Los Angeles studio in 2019. In 2021, he returned to Missouri to be closer to family and to expand his studio practice, an inflection point that brought a new clarity and ambition to his work.
Daniel’s collections are characterized by bold forms, unexpected silhouettes, and a sense of movement and humor that challenge traditional ideas of lighting and furniture. In 2023, he debuted his Squiggle series at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair in New York, earning the Editor’s Award for Best Lighting. The following year, he introduced The Rumpus Collection, further establishing his playful, formdriven design language.

NICK MISSEL
Philadelphia, PA
Born in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1989, Nicholas Missel earned a BFA in Sculpture from the Kansas City Art Institute before completing an MFA at the Rhode Island School of Design as a Jack Kent Cooke Scholar. After graduating in 2016, he attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, where he developed his ‘Negatives’ series—an ongoing exploration in his work.
Missel has exhibited at In Good Company (winning Best in Show), A/D/O, and Socrates Sculpture Park, NY. His practice, a form of “cultural archaeology of the working class,” focuses on overlooked objects, transforming them into new identities that exist in a liminal space between past, present, and future. Using silicone as a key material, he creates interactive, otherworldly sculptures that appear almost digital yet remain grounded in reality through the textures of their source objects. His work reflects an Anthropocentric worldview, where objects dissolve, shift, and reform, blurring the boundaries between memory and reinvention.

TRISH DEMASI
Philadelphia, PA
Trish DeMasi creates abstract ceramic works that merge organic biomorphic shapes with structured geometric forms, drawing inspiration from nature and architecture. Her sculptures and vessels begin as drawings or paintings before being hand-built in various clay bodies, meticulously carved, and glazed in a refined palette. With over 20 years as a creative director in advertising, DeMasi’s background strongly influences her approach, resulting in stylized, graphic interpretations rather than literal representations.
As a self-taught ceramicist, she values the freedom to experiment without the constraints of formal training, continuously pushing the limits of clay. Her work blurs the boundaries between design, fine art, and craft, embracing creativity without labels.

RICHARD HAINING
Brooklyn, NY
Richard Haining is an artist and studio furniture maker whose practice bridges sustainable design and fine craft. Raised in Atlanta, GA, and educated at the Rhode Island School of Design, he has lived and worked in Brooklyn since 2008. Guided from an early age by the belief that if something could be made better, you should learn to make it yourself, Haining brings this ethos to his work, honoring both process and material integrity. Drawing inspiration from discarded wood across New York City— from shop offcuts to old-growth timbers salvaged from pre-war buildings—he meticulously hand-stacks thousands of wood segments to form his celebrated STACKED Collection. Similar to coiled ceramics or analog 3D printing, his process creates unique forms that are refined by hand to reveal surfaces rich with variation and history. His work, which embodies permanence in an age of disposability, has been exhibited worldwide, collected internationally, and recognized with awards such as the James Renwick Alliance Award of Excellence for Innovation in Craft and the RISD People’s Choice Award.

HENRY BAUGHMANN
Berlin, DE
Baumann’s acclaimed Boo series epitomizes his artistry, featuring tables and seating crafted from meticulously stacked resin bubbles. These organic forms, influenced by chance yet guided by his thoughtful frameworks, glow with a gentle translucency that imparts a sense of fluidity and elegance. Resting atop polished brass feet, the pieces invite touch with their smooth, matte surfaces, striking a harmonious balance between structure and spontaneity.
Eschewing initial sketches, he works intuitively, embracing the unexpected. “When I’m experimenting with these materials, I often begin with an idea that fails—but through failure, something unexpected emerges. I’m fascinated by that process,” he shares.
His extensive exhibition history spans Vienna, Düsseldorf, Milan, Amsterdam, and beyond, with pieces featured in museum collections such as Kunstfestival Watou in Belgium and Kunstkraftwerk Leipzig.

Erin Sullivan makes functional sculpture encoded with the spirit of nature. She aims to honor nature’s intelligence and beauty while exemplifying its primal elegance. Each object amplifies the essence of the plant, animal, or element that inspired it. Together, her pieces construct a symbolic language which reconnects us to the mystery of the natural world.
Sullivan’s archetypal repertoire occupies the space between art and design. Themes of life and death, matter and spirit, masculine and feminine weave a mythopoetic narrative. With the art of ceremony at the center of her work, tables become altars, stools are totems, and mirrors can be portals. At a recent residency, Portal de Luz in Uruguay, Erin constructed a site-specific installation, “The Unified Field,” a nature temple of ritual space with natural and cast ceremonial objects.
Her process includes mold making, wax sculpting, and lostwax casting. Since 2014, her work has been exhibited and collected worldwide.

ASHLEY AND JOHAN WILÉN-JONG
Stockholm, SE
A conversation between craft and concept, Wilén-Jong is the artistic union of Johan Wilén-Jong and Ash Wilén-Jong—a couple whose work blurs the boundaries between function and narrative. Rooted in Stockholm, with origins spanning Sweden and Hong Kong, their practice is a dialogue between precision and poetry: Johan’s mastery of Scandinavian woodworking meets Ash’s storytelling through design. The result? Objects that are tactile, layered, and quietly expressive— where material and message hold equal weight. Featured in Architectural Digest, Wallpaper Magazine, WWD, Dezeen, and more, Wilén-Jong’s work is both deeply personal and universally resonant.

EZRA ARDOLINO
Keansburg, NJ
Ezra Ardolino, educated as an architect, is an artist and entrepreneur working at the intersection of art, architecture, and design through digital fabrication. In 2009 he founded Timbur, a New Jersey–based studio pushing the boundaries of CNC and robotic manufacturing in collaboration with leading artists, designers, and brands. His practice centers on Futurewood, an innovative use of plywood as a sculptural medium, shaped by years of technical experimentation and hands-on problemsolving. In 2023, he debuted N90N, a collectible design series exploring the moment when digital form transcends code, transforming polygon-based models into layered, hand-finished Futurewood objects that blur the line between virtual precision and material reality.
Ezra has also extended his practice into lighting design, applying the same synthesis of digital modeling and material exploration to illuminated works. His lighting pieces often integrate sculptural form with advanced fabrication techniques, resulting in objects that not only emit light but also embody the layered, dynamic qualities of his larger body of work.

MARCUS VINICIUS DE PAULA
Brooklyn, NY
Marcus Vinicius De Paula is a Brazilian-American sculptor based in New York whose practice explores identity, ancestry, and humanity’s place within the cosmos. The son of Brazilian immigrants—his father having risen from a small town in São Paulo to directing NASA Mars missions—De Paula reflects on legacy and fragility through stone and light. His sculptures, often titled after moons of Saturn, blend volcanic rock, granite, and alabaster—some over a billion years old—with neon and LED illumination, producing works that read as relics from another world. By handcrafting both stone forms and glass light elements, he creates monumental objects that fuse the ancient and futuristic, evoking both interstellar matter and human aspiration.
Informed by Brutalist and Modernist architecture in Brazil, as well as memories of traversing Rio de Janeiro’s visual landscape, De Paula considers his works as maquettes with unlimited potential scale. His multidisciplinary background in theater, film, and live performance—designing with light for over 15 years— further shapes his sculptural vision. He has led creative direction for installations at South by Southwest, on tour with Ra Ra Riot, and at the Edinburgh Fringe, and his sculptures have been exhibited at the Salon Art & Design Fair (2024), Burning Man (2022), Davidson Gallery (2022), Verso (2023), and Love House (2025).

JONATHAN PRINCE
Berkshires, MA
Jonathan Prince, a New York–born artist based in the Berkshires, creates sculptural works that bridge science, technology, and spirituality. Initially trained as a maxillofacial surgeon, Prince returned to his lifelong passion for sculpture in 2002, establishing a world-class fabrication facility to pursue his artistic vision.
His practice centers on the dialogue between precision and imperfection—monumental forms that reveal both strength and vulnerability. Each work reflects his fascination with material transformation and the balance between chaos and beauty.
Now represented in collections worldwide, Prince continues to explore how form and matter embody the deeper tensions of existence, crafting sculptures that invite reflection on the complexities of the human condition.

SOFIA KARAKATSANIS
Worcestershire, UK
Sofia Karakatsanis is fascinated by wood in all its forms; as a tree, a material, a fuel. As wood was once living it reacts to processes it is put through, moving and twisting. She responds to this in real time while constructing and carving, allowing a dialogue between maker and material. She grew up in the Black Country, a hub of industry in the UK. This lifelong exposure to craft fostered a strong fascination with making that has led to her own practice in wood, the material she feels most drawn to.
Sofia’s carving process is very organic, working with power carving tools such as angle grinders, down to finer hand tools, referencing sketches throughout. This allows her to create the forms intuitively, and react to the wood as it reacts to the processes and allow the grain to inform the shape. Sofia subjects her work to extreme conditions when finishing; chemical bleaching Sycamore to achieve a bone white colour, and scorching Ash to create a blackened, highly textured finish. Working in this way allows the forms to be material led. As she carves, Sofia exposesand focuses on the natural grain in the wood, using this to inform and accentuate the shape. She wants to evoke the feeling that these pieces were once living, appearing to come from one piece by allowing the grain to inform the shape.
