Nature is a worldwide web of energies that interact constantly. Matter and information are shared, communicated and spread out boundlessly. Like nature, art and craft has a history of cross-pollination. They have been essential in uniting the world by creating impressions of distant lands –a tangible reminder of our origins, representing stories that ignite imagination.Born from these ideas is – MAREEN.
In our collaboration, art, design, traditional craftmanship and digital media create a joyful, multisensory experience. Art and craft play a vital role in global understanding. We explore a design language, that touches the roots of what unites people from different cultures.
