Sarabande Foundation at Soho Home
27 April - 20 June

TAKEOVER DATES:

27 April – 8 May: Martina Spetlova and Kirico Ueda
11– 22 May: Alice von Maltzhan and Aurora Pettinari York for Craft Week
24 May – 5 June: Christopher Thompson Royds and Stephen Doherty for The Chelsea Flower Show
8 –20 June: Katy Mason and Shaina Craft for Women Artists Awareness Week

Sarabande and Soho Home are coming together to celebrate their devotion to craftsmanship with a two month takeover in Soho Home’s West London studio.

In March 2022, Sarabande partnered with Soho Home for their BOUND Exhibition - a limited-edition hardbound book that showcases an eclectic collection of paper-based artworks created by 36 Sarabande artists. The unique collection celebrated the boundless creativity of the artists and the potential of paper.

A continuation of the collaboration, eight Sarabande artists from different disciplines make a creative home in the Soho Home across May and June. Traversing art, fashion, craft, painting, jewellery and more, this Sarabande staycation represents the diversity of the Foundation’s creative support.

Each fortnight, a different artistic duo will take up residence and the public is invited to explore their unique crafts. Firstly, kaleidoscopic woven leather by Martina Spetlova usually seen in her clothing will be transformed into furniture and home accessories, this will be accompanied by the delightful shadow puppet chess sets of Kirico Ueda.
Later, Alice von Maltzahn’s intricate floral paper installations will blow across the walls alongside meticulously executed embroidery by Aurora Pettinari-York. For The Chelsea Flower Show, the glorious ink flowers of Stephen Doherty and Christopher Thompson-Royd’s exquisite golden floral wall sconces will be on display. Women Artists Art Week will partner large-scale oil paintings that question our relationship with our bodies by Shaina Craft with the up-cyclist jewellery and sculptures of Katy Mason.

Everyday is the Earth Day at our studio. All our beautiful leather hides are traceable and Metal-free. Metal-free tanning uses decomposable organic chemicals to enable the leather to be safely biodegraded and in the process, recycles 98% of the water used. It is better for the planet and people. ♻️

International Women's day - I am thinking of all the amazing women I know and work with and all Ukrainian women and girls.

From the recent death of a six-year-old girl at the hands of the Russian regime to the heroic viral video showing one woman challenging a Russian soldier on the streets of her hometown, people around the globe are witnessing the pain and cruelty of this moment as much as they are witnessing the courage and resilience of Ukrainian women and girls.

It is common for women and children to suffer the most during the war. With this knowledge, it is critical that women seek to help Ukrainian women at this moment.

Donate to funds supporting women, girls, and gender non-conforming people in Ukraine such as the "Urgent Action Fund for Women’s Human Right’s", the "Ukrainian Women’s Fund", "Feminist Workshop" (based in Lviv), and "Razom Emergency Response". 💙💛

More about our metal-free leather⁠
The widely used term for the "metal-free" tanning process is “bio-leather”. It requires the restriction of chrome exemption as well as any other metals that are usually present in the treatment and dying processes. Metal-free is better for the planet and people.⁠
