Pavoni Collaboration WOW! HOUSE 2025
I was delighted to be invited to collaborate with Pavoni for this year's Wow!House. Pavoni leather is not just a material—it’s a mark of craftsmanship, blending tradition with sophisticated design. Ideal for connoisseurs who value understated luxury and enduring quality Pavoni supplies high end brands including Chanel.. I love working with new materials so this opportunity presented an exciting challenge as to how to incorporate this leather in a mixed media artwork.
Wow!house is the ultimate designer showhouse and runs from Tuesday 3 June to Thursday 3 July 2025 at Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour.
"Built within the Design Avenue, WOW!house is a one-of-a-kind showhouse stretching 600 sq m. See 22 full-size rooms and outdoor spaces — each uniquely designed by world-class interior designers, working in collaboration with globally recognised design brands and incredible suppliers.

The two centrepieces of this collaboration, Flame and Last Light, are inspired by the Jurassic Coast.
They speak to different stages of transformation.
Flame burns with the moment of impact—destruction as creation. Whereas Last Light whispers of what remains—memories weathered soft by time.
Together they explore how landscapes, both internal and external, carry marks of change—some tender, some fierce.
Through layered textures, muted scars, and burning gradients, these abstract works speak not only to the surface—but to the histories that cling beneath it.
Last Light is a meditation on erosion: soft, tactile, and intimate. . Its gentle pink tones and stitched vertical marks suggest the patience of healing—the trace of what once stirred deeply.
In stark contrast, Flame confronts us with rupture. With visceral reds, molten oranges, and fractured blacks, it captures a world in combustion—a moment when all that is known burns away, forging the raw terrain of what comes next.
Together, these works embody the dual forces of preservation and destruction. One whispers, the other roars—but both speak of resilience. In their pairing, they ask: what do we keep, and what must we let burn?
