“The work of an artist can go off in as many directions as there are hairs on your head. It goes wherever it wants to,” says Kiki Smith, capturing the essence of creativity in this stunning Illy Art Collection. This exclusive set of six cappuccino cups invites you to explore the unique, tiny, and immense worlds crafted by Smith, where daytime and night-time fascinations intertwine.
Each cup in this collection is adorned with delicate illustrations of flowers, butterflies, birds, stars, suns, and moons, woven together in a light-hearted story that echoes the tradition of Europe’s decorative arts, reminiscent of floral paintings on ceramics. These artistic designs are not just limited to the cups but also extend to the metal surface of the designer coffee can, creating a cohesive and enchanting experience.
Whether you choose to bring these unique worlds together or savor each one individually, this collection is a celebration of the imagination and a beautiful part of the LIVE HAPPilly story. Perfect for collectors, art lovers, or anyone who appreciates the fusion of art and coffee, the Kiki Smith Illy Art Collection offers a delightful way to elevate your daily ritual.
