Pistil

Event organised by Michela Cattai

The Pistillo collection by Michela Cattai once again expresses its fascinating connection with the force of nature. Made using the Murano blown glass technique, each piece, shaped freehand, reflects the timeless beauty of its surroundings, with monochrome tones of amber. The oblique shape of Pistillo symbolizes the unpredictability of nature and its constant evolution. The collection reinterprets the ancient Murano glass processing techniques, reflecting the excellence of Italian craftsmanship through the fusion of traditions in a contemporary visual language. A tribute to the craftsmanship that unites the past and present in design.

Michela Cattai (b. Italy, 1965), is a Milanese artist and designer who graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia. She was Art Director at Venini from 2019 and since 2023 has been independently leading Galleria Art+Design in Brera. Her work has been shown at the Chamber of Deputies in Rome and the Italian Cultural Institute in Tokyo. Her pieces are part of private and museum collections. She participates in fairs such as Design Miami and PAD London.
