Naomi also describes her colour selection, “ Selecting paint colours was such fun: I wanted to extract from the Morris & Co Pimpernel wallpaper. Naomi also used hand crafted ceiling roses, which are sympathetic to the buildings’ history and synonymous with her lighting choices, another key component of her design. It was important for me that the hallway was the pulse of the apartment – it is both long and wide, with high ceilings and all rooms run off it.”
Morris even used Pimpernel to decorate his own dining room at Kelmscott House in London. Created in around 1876, the wallpaper exemplifies how Morris’ interest for Japanese design led to the simplification of lines and colours. Naomi explains why she chose this design in particular, “ the luxurious textural paper possesses the same ebb and flow of the River outside embodied in the intricate floral trellis and organic forms, whilst also possessing a strong symmetrical formation of the leaves, which Morris & Co incorporated into the design of his Pimpernel paper.

La réévaluation des techniques, aussi bien mécaniques que manuelles, présente dans ses oeuvres nous invite à revisiter le banal et le quotidien désormais libérés de leur déterminisme.Īlexei Alexander Izmaylov est né en Russie. Izmaylov se sert ensuite de la peinture, du dessin et du langage pour venir altérer ces éléments de manière faussement urgente et chaleureuse. Les éléments qui servent de base à ses assemblages sont souvent produits en utilisant des techniques de production mécanisées réservées à l'industrie. Très orienté vers la recherche, notamment celle de matériaux, le travail d'Alexei Alexander Izmaylov peut être qualifié de composite. Elles interrogent la relation entre leur dimensions rationnelle et symbolique avec perspicacité et humour et un certain sens de la révélation. Les sculptures d'Alexei Alexander Izmaylov se caractérisent par l'usage d'un vocabulaire de formes et de couleurs qui met en avant la dimension esthétique et la forte capacité d'évocation des objets qui les composent. He is currently enrolled on the MA Sculpture programme at the Royal College of Art.īA Visual Communication & Graphic Design 2008

The evaluation of design, mechanical and manual skills that feature in the making of Izmaylov's pieces presents us with the reinterpreted mundane, forcing to look at the everyday free from its determinism.īorn in Russia, Alexei Alexander Izmaylov lives and works in London. In doing so he oscillates between finding novel materials and ways of employing machining techniques made for industrial processes while continuously interacting with his pieces in an urgent fashion by way of assemblage, painting and inlay. Heavily rooted in research, Alexei Alexander Izmaylov makes designs which subsequently yield components for assembly of his artworks. What follows is cognitive dissonance, insight and a sense of disclosure: gradually revealing that the work possesses a critical and conceptual magnitude which questions both rational and symbolic dimensions. Alexei Alexander Izmaylov's sculpture based practice is fundamentally comprised of intuitive use of light, shape and colour, and his pieces are initially recognised for their aesthetic value and ability to forge a visceral connection.
