The Art of Stillness Exhibition

For PAD and Frieze Week, Savoir, Mayfair Design District, and CTO Lighting present The Art of Stillness, a month-long exhibition hosted in Savoir’s Mayfair showroom.


Carousel showcasing a selection of artworks on display at Savoir's PAD event.

 

An invitation to pause, to breathe, to notice.

In a culture of acceleration, stillness becomes an act of resistance and refinement. This exhibition explores the question: What does it mean to design for stillness? What objects ask us to slow down, breathe deeper, and reconnect?

Through the lens of craft, stillness is not only rest, but ritual. Not only silence, but presence. The works on display embody material intelligence and quiet mastery. Each piece invites touch, attention, and appreciation.

My pieces pose questions about the material and the idea of function, playing with the viewers’ perception to examine what is real and not real.
