Open Studio: Mesmerik Collection Launch
Based at the Blackhorse Workshop, Meseme by Riya Panchal will be hosting their open studio to launch their latest lighting collection in collaboration with KPKinan Glass.
Join us for the launch of MESMERIK - a sculptural lighting collection by designer Riya of Meseme Studio and artist Kira Phoenix K’inan. This striking new series blends bubble-rich kiln-formed glass with precision-engineered metal forms, creating emotionally evocative, customisable lighting.
MESMERIK invites curiosity, touch, and conversation, transforming function into art. Explore light, material, and form in luminous harmony.
Workshop: Sculpting in Thread - Reframing the Mantis Lamp
Join lighting designer & maker Riya Panchal and artist Nicole Chui for a hands-on workshop embroidering miniature paper versions of Meseme’s Mantis Lamp. No experience needed – take home your unique sculptural piece!
Reimagine Meseme Studio’s signature Mantis Table Lamp through intuitive hand-stitching on sculptural paper forms. Inspired by their collaborative CONCHA Embroidure collection which translated footballers’ movements into dynamic stitchwork, this session invites you to explore texture, form and personal expression through embroidery.
Conversation: Design That Connects
Join lighting designer Riya Panchal (Meseme Studio), embroidery artist Nicole Chui, and glass artist Kira Phoenix K’inan for a relaxed conversation about working together across different disciplines and why personal stories, craft, and culture matter now more than ever.
Lighting designer Riya Panchal (Meseme Studio), embroidery artist Nicole Chui, and glass artist Kira Phoenix K’inan will share how their collaborations grew into two unique lighting collections - blending embroidery, sculptural glass, and lighting design. Expect insights into how they work, why they chose small-batch over mass production, and how design can be emotional, expressive, and personal.
This isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s about what happens when creatives make space for each other’s voices and backgrounds, and how that shapes the objects we live with.
