Kave Gallery is a declaration of intent, a steadfast commitment to democratize access to art.
For us, art is culture, and culture is intrinsic to the space we call home.
With this project, we aim to democratize and break the barriers of the classical art gallery format. Kave Gallery is a place where you can find inspiration, learn, discover new talents, and access more established profiles. A place where you can discover original pieces from unique artists to enjoy in your spaces.
MANIFESTO
1 Celebration of Artistic Diversity
At Kave Home, we appreciate diversity in all its forms. We collaborate with emerging and established artists, embracing a wide range of styles, techniques, and visions. We want every home to reflect the diversity of artistic expression, turning each space into a unique and personal canvas.
2 Collaboration and Support for Artists
Our platform is not just a place for selling artworks but also a space for collaboration and support for artists. We have formed a community with creators to boost their careers, providing them with a platform to showcase their talent and connect with a global audience.
3 Commitment to Art
Our project extends beyond Kave Gallery; we aim to build bridges, open doors, and break down barriers. We are committed to the world of art, supporting events and collaborations that nurture creativity and promote cultural dialogue. Original art and design enrich our existence and have the power to transform the world. Our purpose is to ensure that the entire Kave Home community has access to these creations, thus elevating space design to another level.
New artists
On this occasion we are in an inspiring and emblematic space in Barcelona, the Joan Miró Foundation.
We present a carefully curated selection of furniture, with each piece specially chosen to complement the artworks of this edition.
Malou
Palmqvist
Malou Palmqvist began her career at a young age, influenced by her artist parents. Through personal exploration she has found her identity, based on her interest for the interaction of the organic and synthetic shapes. Inspired by the natural processes of decomposition, Malou explores textures, colours and shapes in constant evolution, capturing movement in time.
"My work exists on the edge of collapse, exploring the delicate balance between structure and disintegration. Each piece is a meditation on the beauty of decay and the endless possibilities that arise from transformation."
– Malou Palmqvist
Abid
Javed
Trained in molecular biology, Abid Javed bases his pieces on an abstract and surreal approach, creating sculptural landscapes inspired by biology and its narratives. He explores concepts ranging from cells and molecules to biomorphism, integrating his cultural heritage with references to Islamic art, geometry and 20th century design. He mainly uses ceramics, which, combined with other materials, creates innovative pieces that are somewhere between sculpture and design.
“My sculptural world is an abstract representation of the beautiful/wild/alien-like creatures with which we coexist in our molecular world.”
– Abid Javed
Bettina
Willnauer
Bettina Willnauer’s work is based on the creation of dream worlds in which everyday objects, nature and the human form converge. Her creative process takes inspiration from landscape, where she finds colour combinations and begins to create her sketches, which constantly evolve, reflecting an organic and fluid exploration of her ideas.
"Tufting for me is some sort of meditation, to completely be in the moment, with myself and create whatever feels right in that exact second. It’s grounding and empowering at the same time.“
– Bettina Willnauer
Mattia
Sugamiele
Mattia Sugamiele’s work combines multiple techniques such as painting, sculpture, digital technologies and video, taking the philosopher Floridi’s theory of the human condition in a hybrid world between the virtual and the real as inspiration. Mattia explores how contemporary technologies redefine human identity through works combining different languages and media.
“At this complex historical moment, art is tasked with showing us other possible worlds; this is how my works take shape, becoming containers, constellations in which to immerse ourselves, in which to reflect.”
– Mattia Sugamiele
Mariana
Baertl
Inspired by nature, its elements and organic forms, in her work Mariana Baertl reflects the natural landscapes, textures and patterns that surround her, evoking movement and fluidity. In her intuitive creative process, she uses the elements from her environment, fusing concepts and materials to create unique pieces.
“I love creating with natural materials because they reflect a wide variety of textures and shapes that inspire me. They also convey feelings of peace and relaxation to the viewer.”
– Mariana Baertl
Théo
Lopez
Théo Lopez started his artistic career in 2008 in Paris, after meeting the 9ème Concept artists group. His curious nature and travelling abroad have led the artist to adopt an abstract style. Inspired by Russian constructivism and German expressionism, his work combines experimentation and technique, oscillating between reflection and spontaneity. His creative process is based on intuition and geometric structuring, generating constant transformations in his paintings. His works are composed of multiple layers, colours and vibrant lines, evoking energy flows to create harmonies that define his unique artistic style.
“Colour is radiation and like radiation it is in motion. My role as an artist is to transcribe these movements and give them substance.”
– Théo Lopez
