ABOUT

Nayara Nascimento is a Native Brazilian-Canadian artist and founder of aeny studio, an interdisciplinary design practice transforming unconventional materials into sculptural, functional art. Her work challenges the boundaries between art and furniture, blending diverse influences with a unique perspective shaped by her experiences as a neurodivergent creator.

 

Rooted in cultural heritage and a commitment to sustainability, each piece reflects a journey of self-discovery, celebrating the beauty in imperfection and exploring the complexity of identity. By repurposing discarded materials, her designs embody themes of renewal and transformation, emphasizing the value in what is often overlooked or misunderstood.

 

Through aeny studio, Nayara aims to provoke thought and challenge the traditional view of furniture as merely functional. Each creation invites viewers to engage with its hidden layers of meaning and cultural reflection, fostering a deeper connection to the objects that shape daily life.

'My work is a response to a desire to 'switch off' and reconnect with our instinct - a quiet, inexplicable voice inside of us communicating an emotion or feeling that only art or music can convey. In our fast-paced technological world, it seems increasingly vital that we don't render ourselves blind to that deep primal language, so often undervalued'.
