ICFF: ANNE KYYRO QUINN
While running around through the NYC Convention Center, meeting talented stationery artists and Surtex pattern designers, we managed to sneak downstairs to ICFF, the International Contemporary Furniture Fair. These wall coverings - produced by London based Anne Kyyro Quinn studio - were truly a unique find.
According to the bio, "Resembling artworks more than conventional fabrics, the contemporary creations produced by the Anne Kyyrö Quinn studio are not textiles as you once knew them. Cut, sewn and finished by hand, the sculptural products are known for bold colours, rich textures and striking motifs. Anne Kyyrö Quinn’s sculptural approach has pioneered a new genre of interior textiles based on three-dimensional structure rather than smooth surface ornamentation." The dimensional, sculpted felt is both wall covering and wall art.
