Evan Z. Crane is a Brooklyn born designer and manufacturer of fine furnishings. Growing up in south Brooklyn the industrial landscape had a profound effect on him. He immersed himself in the stark geometry of his surroundings. Drawing upon that inspiration, he creates not just furniture but functional sculpture imbued with personality. It is obsession that drives him, every aspect of a piece is derived from a vision that cannot be reasoned with. In his heart Evan believes that if he stays true to his vision, the work will not only speak for itself, but live on with its own personality, long after it has left his workshop. Still fully immersed in the industrial landscape he produces furniture from his studio in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and resides in Gowanus Brooklyn with his wife and children.

Lauren Goodman is the lead designer and founder of studio Lauren Goodman, a sculptural furniture studio creating innovative works at the intersection of art and design. Lauren’s process is deeply rooted in the landscape, exploring the relationship between material and place. Utilizing found objects and materials sourced from regional waste streams, each piece emerges through a continuous dialogue with her surrounding environment. Amalya Meira is a fashion and textile designer & co-owner of design space Lagoon New York. Here she creates wearable and non-wearable works examining time, materiality and intention. Utilizing a vocabulary of transparent construction and zero waste patterning throughout, Amalya’s eponymous clothing line Amalya Meira favors the highly textured & is composed solely of repurposed or deadstock materials. Overgrown is the duo’s first collaboration, merging their distinct practices, underscoring a shared commitment to sustainable design across objects and garments. The armature is made from abandoned lobster traps salvaged off the coast of Maine. The traps are collected by hand from tidal coves where derelict fishing gear accumulates in large quantities. They are carefully deconstructed and organically rearranged to form one of a kind pieces of furniture. The upholstery is a sculptural evolution from Meira’s wearable “Moss” collection. Employing a favorite textile of the designer: hand dyed recycled sari silk yarn sourced responsibly from a small mill in Mumbai. Meticulously crocheted onto the armature, the upholstery unfurls like a slow growing moss across the surface of a felled tree. The piece is transformed into something half forgotten and half wild, reminiscent of a relic left to be reimagined by the forest.

Lukemalaney@gmail.com


To the distinction between furniture and sculpture, Luke Malaney pays little mind. Trained under a classical Roman woodworker, his scrupulous works serve as new models for old-world techniques. Traditional craft in unchartered waters. Nature is revered and architecture is something to be negotiated with; the legacy of many months spent hiking in the wilderness and the permanent side effect of a lifetime of skateboarding. Unbridled painters, old hockey sticks and his emboldened Mother — for inspiration, the New York-based artist goes nowhere and finds it everywhere. Likening his process to the rodeo, predictably unpredictable, each work is an act of discovery and the product of countless considerations. While functionality and endurance may be the only hard-and-fast rules of his methods for making, the result brings a pause. A kind of beauty that makes your head tilt.
