Workroom Profile VIII: Marianna Kennedy

Marianna Kennedy was born in Canada but has lived and worked in the Spitalfields area of East London for twenty-five years. Her work reinterprets traditional forms, suffusing them with a contemporary aesthetic to produce pieces of timeless beauty. Central to her artistic vision is the respect for craftsmanship; each piece that bears her name is the result of many months of collaboration with traditional British artisans who apply their exacting standards to these modern designs.

From her studio in Spitalfields, she creates a small number of museum-quality commissions each year; these pieces are placed in some of the most exclusive private collections in the world. She also produces highly limited editions of her most celebrated pieces, including Cawdor Lamps, lacquered Gueridons and colour-infused mirrors.

In addition to her bespoke work, her workshop also produces larger editions of decorative objects, such as her resin lamps and horsehair blinds, considered by many to be modern classics.

The resin lamps and book cloth shades are part of the ‘workshop’ items from Marianna’s studio. Lamps are hand polished cast resin in 12 colours.

The lampshades are made from book cloth and horsehair. Very often Marianna’s lamps are chosen to co-ordinate with her blinds in the same fabrics.
