Designer: Sam E. Weinberg
Collection: Umbra
Intrigued by the aura of nocturnal creatures and wanting to depict something that has yet to be seen as beautiful, Sam e. became inspired by moths. Seeking to capture the delicate qualities found within their feather-like wings, she pieced together various textiles in shapes that mimicked a moth's wings in flight.
Sam e. collects inspiration as though it were a rare object. Her shelves are overflowing with items that tell a story, whether it be a found snapshot or a vintage embroidery. She sees the beauty in it all. Applying this collected sensibility to her design process, she creates pieces that evoke a sense of nostalgia, but simultaneously speak of something new and innovative.
