HOMO FABER FELLOWSHIP

Milan Design Week. 21 - 26 April 2026. Casa Degli Artisti, Milan, Italy.

3daysofdesign. 10 - 12 June 2026. Bianca D’Alessandro Gallery, Copenhagen, Denmark.

Homo Faber Fellowship is an annual eight-month international sponsored craft training programme designed for duos of master artisans and emerging talents. Participants will develop business and marketing knowledge, as well as design and hands-on practical skills through transmission from one generation to the next. 

Presented at Homo Faber Fellowship, Mineral Table Box explores containment, fragmentation and assembly. Composed of three interlocking elements, the piece balances autonomy and cohesion, forming a unified whole through the dialogue of its parts. Hand-chiselled textures and mirror-polished surfaces interact with light, constantly transforming how it is perceived. An open sculpture shaped by matter and gesture.
