YETI FLOOR LAMP BY OLGA ENGEL

OLGA ENGEL

French and Latvian artist, Olga Engel creates work that combines luxury, minimalism, and functionality with a sense of character, powerful emotional undercurrents, and a touch of irony. Her practice is fueled by a desire to metamorphose ordinary objects into expressive works of art by giving them new, unexpected functions. For Engel, beauty and harmony in art can only manifest if there is a strong, sensory, emotional underpinning. Her work, therefore, is intentionally and unequivocally personal, born from her experiences, emotions, and memories, inviting us to recall intimate moments in our own lives

Engel collaborates with master artisans in both France and Latvia to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship in her designs. She is a graduate of the Moscow Textile Academy and the Moscow Design School, and continued her training at KLC School of Design in London, where she worked closely with British designer Mark Humphrey. Her work, found in private collections across Europe and USA, has been featured at premiere design exhibitions including Salone Milano, Design Miami, Salon Art + Design New York, PAD Paris, and PAD Geneva
