is an Athens based creative studio, founded by Danae Dasyra (Gr) and
Joe Bradford (UK) specialising in limited edition sculptural objects.
Following individual professional journeys,
they join their respective yet complimentary skills towards a shared vision in September 22.
The act of making becomes the emphasis, where a material or process dictate
and design is merely a response. Most of the fabrication remains in-house,
although specialised artisans and industries collaborations can become integral to the outcome.
Our pieces invite people to imagine narratives about their origins and function, and challenge one’s perception of aesthetics or even objects. We aspire to stimulate curiosity through an objects striking presence demanding one to pause and take a moment to fully appreciate.
