Sierra Yip-Bannicq |
She has an extensive and impressive body of work that belies her age and demonstrates unequivocally her talent and her determination to make a name for herself in the field of industrial design.
Her inspiration comes from working with new materials and processes, and her style exudes the simplicity of Modernism and the beauty and precision of handcraftsmanship. She has done outstanding work in wood and steel, and her latest projects have employed concrete, poly foam, sand cast aluminum, slip cast porcelain and 3D printed plastic.
As if that weren't enough, she's also an accomplished collage artist and photographer, capturing some of the most compelling shots I've seen in quite some time.
I think we should all keep an eye on this young woman. She's here to stay.

Lovely bowls. I like the colors...
ReplyDeleteSeveral of her ceramic pieces come in a range of colors. Check out the Vasa cup colors on her website.
DeleteThe texture on the wickered bowls is lovely!
ReplyDeleteAs an art teacher, I'm sure you appreciate how talented she is and how much she's accomplished at age 22.
DeleteVery cool! I love the Marrow Table- great material combination
ReplyDeleteI love that table too. The materials and lines are fantastic!
DeleteI think you're right. She's a very talented designer. Her style is the new classic.
ReplyDeleteI just blows me away that she has created so many beautiful pieces at her age. What will she have done by the time she's 30? 40?
DeleteSo many beautiful pieces, yes, but in so many different media, too.
DeleteLovely. Thank you for sharing.
And I want that nook desk & stool!
I think that desk and stool are wonderful...and the stool can double as a side table.
DeleteI'm lovin those bowls, especially the wickered ones. Very cool pieces.
ReplyDeleteThose are very pretty...but I'm in love with the penguin! :)
DeleteI tend to focus more on the furniture design than other pieces, but they are all gorgeous and love her range in materials. Yes, that penguin is way fun! Love the desk and stool, the loop chair and Marrow table! Look forward to seeing more of her work!
ReplyDeleteAs much as she's produced already, I think we'll see much more from her in the future. I expect this is just the tip of the iceberg.
