Rive Roshan, 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘋𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘛𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦, 𝘙𝘦𝘥 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, 2020, colour print, laminated glass, Ø 120 x 40 cm. Edition of 5 + 2 AP. Image courtesy the designer and @gallerysallydancuthbert

@riveroshan is the artistic practice of Ruben de la Rive Box (Netherlands, 1981) and Golnar Roshan (Australia, 1986). Featured in @gallerysallydancuthbert's summer exhibition, 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘋𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘊𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘥 is a continuation of Rive Roshan’s explorations of sweeping through hues of colour on a glass surface. Light that falls onto the tables travels through the glass picking up the different tones, leaving a coloured trail as if time was caught in hues settling down on the surface.

𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘋𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘊𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘥 was featured in the @NGVmelbourne 2020 exhibition 𝘖𝘴𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘴.

Known for his mastery of materials, form, and process, 𝘙𝘦𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 presents a collection focused on re-imagining and transforming not only virgin materials, but the forgotten, the waste and the discarded, into mesmerizingly beautiful, refined designs that respectfully echo place and the materials they are made from.

Congratulations A&A @adamandarthur on receiving the Furniture design of the year for 𝘔𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 at the @dezeenawards_ 2022

Chosen from over 5,400 entries from 90 countries around the world, the work was a highlight of @ngvmelbourne Melbourne Design Week in March 2022, presented at @tolarno.

@dezeen noted:
“Design duo Adam and Arthur decorated Mother and Child with straw marquetry, a craft technique that uses flattened ribbons of straw to embellish furniture. The undulating monochromatic cabinet references the silhouette of a mother and child, a recurring motif in art history. ‘𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘺,’ said the design master jury. ‘𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦.’
