THE CURE (HEAVENLY PIE(A)CES) BY RICHARD YASMINE

THE CURE (HEAVENLY PIE(A)CES) is an immersive conceptual installation by Richard Yasmine exploring healing as a continuous, introspective process rather than a final destination. Conceived as a ritual space, the project reflects on unseen emotional wounds and the quiet act of self-forgiveness. Rendered in hypnotic white-on-white compositions, the installation transforms white into a symbol of potential, purity, and rebirth—creating a contemplative sanctuary where time becomes both witness and healer. Three sculptural elements define the journey: a headstone-shaped armchair evoking mortality and renewal, a pendulum clock symbolizing the cyclical nature of time, and a halo-like wall light representing inner luminosity. Crafted from white powder-coated aluminum, brass, neo-cement, suede, Carrara marble, and delicate embroidery, THE CURE merges the sacred and the architectural into a serene, immersive experience.

A SHORT INTERVIEW WITH MICHAEL DRIVER


I AM...
Michael Driver, I’m a Brighton based freelance Illustrator and Print maker.

I DO...
I have been working within the creative industry for the last ten years, in the last decade I have worked on lots of projects in animation, publishing, advertising and editorial for clients including Apple, Amazon,The Guardian, Penguin and Transport for London.

CHILDHOOD TO ME IS...
Rebellious, it is wearing your shoes on the wrong feet, dancing when nobody else will, singing even when you shouldn’t and eating too many Pickled onions that you are sick (I have done this). The best thing about being a child is never really caring what other people think of you, I very much miss those days.


IMAGINATION TO ME IS...
Resourceful, it is a rock that is a rare crystal, a hose pipe that turns into a snake or a stick that doubles up as a sword. Some of my fondest memories as a child were with my brothers in the woods building dens, fighting dragons and eating jam sandwiches.

MY FAVOURITE OBJECT IS...
(this is very hard as I hoard so much stuff) the bird whistle made by Russian toy company Kook toys.

MY FAVOURITE COLOUR IS...
Light pink. 

MY FAVOURITE 3 IG PROFILES ARE...
@sunday.nobody.art (really great artist, works on incredibly high effort art projects)
@mschf (a very cool LA based arts collective that straddle fine art and street culture)
@kidsuper ( Colm Dillane is a Brooklyn based artist and street wear designer, his documentary ‘Riding the Bull’ is incredible)

Each piece invites interaction and reinterpretation, offering a fresh and accessible approach to contemporary sculpture.

KOZTO

The chairs and stool by KOZTO embody a clear and radical approach to contemporary design: working exclusively with reclaimed wood to create functional, expressive and long-lasting objects. Made in the Paris-based atelier, the KOZTO seating collection transforms plywood recovered from art transport crates into pieces where sustainability, craftsmanship and poetry coexist naturally.
The chairs - CH_01, CH_02 and CH_03 - share a strong, essential language rooted in circular design. From the iconic CH_01, which celebrates reuse as a cultural act, to the more utilitarian CH_02, originally designed for everyday environments, and the CH_03, enriched with recycled climbing rope details, each piece tells a story of material intelligence and thoughtful construction. Completing the collection, the ST_03 stool offers the same honest materiality in a compact, versatile form, suitable as extra seating, side piece or sculptural accent. KOZTO’s work proves that reuse is not a constraint but a creative driver, resulting in furniture that feels authentic, contemporary and deeply connected to its material origin.
