About

Mint Gallery presents ‘Spring Tide,’ an exhibition guided by the steady influence of contemporary design and its profound relationship with our environment, by highlighting themes inspired by nature. This thoughtfully curated exhibition features the innovative works of various renowned designers including Max Lipsey, Weon Rhee and Onno Adriaanse, alongside the fresh perspectives of emerging talents. Each of these designers explore narratives of upcycling and sustainability while also drawing on the interplay of elemental patterns and cycles which are deeply rooted within the world around us.

Max Lipsey follows his own fascination with nature, craft and the act of making, transforming these passions into tangible objects. His intuitive and hands-on approach allows him to uncover authentic, surprising ideas which draw the eye. Alternatively, Weon Rhee creates exploratory, sensory art that intertwines personal and social narratives. His focus on functional art connects modern audiences to rich stories from Korean history. Studio Onno is a sculptural design studio focused on unique objects inspired by diverse landscapes and their geological processes. Onno’s material-oriented approach results in statement pieces with a high level of craftsmanship. Mint remains the top destination for uncovering these exclusive contemporary designs along with unique, handcrafted ceramics, glassware and textiles.

‘Spring Tide’ embodies the idea that design shows a delicate harmony where nature’s quiet wisdom meets the boundless energy of creation. Together, these designers invite conversation about the ever-evolving landscape of design and its timeless commitment to craftsmanship and authenticity. Discover these innovators who have woven the rhythms of nature into something both instinctive and alive, where shapes emerge not only from excess but from essence.
