    5 Picks from PHILIA Collection

     

    LUPO HORIŌKAMI (b 1979, Venice) has started to have a deep interest in drawing and various artistic forms since 1993. In 1999, he started drawing and tattooing in his studio in Venice. 

    In the following years he had the opportunity to work with world exponents of tattoo art  worldwide, Europe, the United States and finally concentrated his studies in Japan, learning the  importance of tattooing as a cultural and expressive form, which it is also reflected in architecture,  art, design and the vision of spiritual life as impermanence that distinguishes zen and Japanese  culture. 

    After 20 years in the world of tattooing he understood the importance of visual and conceptual form, he started being interested in the world of design and architecture and everything that is  built in the traditional way, the interest not towards a simple design but towards its function and  perception first on the living human body as a single work, and then on objects and sculptures  and on every surface form that can express itself through a visual language.

    “A powerful and mysterious sense of archaism, like a fragment of a lost ritual, where raw matter and sacred form merge into a primitive yet contemporary icon.”

    “A refined and poetic luminous sculpture, ‘Past Forward’ by Morghen Studio blends gilded bronze and floral details into a vertical structure inspired by nature.”

    “A table that evokes strength and harmony, where the solidity of wood meets the elegance of metal in a solemn, almost ritual balance, turning every gathering into a moment of contemplation.”
    “With its bold geometric structure and deep black finish, evokes a sense of architectural strength and quiet mystery. It’s a piece that conveys both solidity and contemporary elegance.”

    “A silent dialogue between matter and void: the dark marble holds the memory of time, while the golden metal rises like a gesture of light and precision.”
