If you’re planning a visit to Venice this year..

We recommend a visit to ‘Kan Yasuda – Isole del Silenzio’ (Islands of Silence), presented by the Fondation d’Entreprise Wilmotte as an official Venice Biennale collateral event.

In this exhibition, marble sculptures give form to a ‘mineral garden’, creating an inner landscape imbued with silence, simplicity, and essentiality. The voids carved into the stone embody the Japanese aesthetic concept of Ma — an interval or active space — establishing a quiet harmony between form and formlessness, presence and absence. Within the dimly lit exhibition space, ten sculptures are arranged like ‘islands’ from which a space of stillness gradually emerges.

Kan Yasuda, Isola del Silenzio, Venice Biennale collateral event, Fondazione Wilmotte, Venice.
The exhibition runs until 22 November

In 2023, we were delighted to welcome Kan Yasuda to Making In.

Since its establishment in 2007, the Maison of Iris van Herpen has consistently combined innovative techniques with traditional couture craftsmanship, resulting in designs that beautifully capture the intricacy and diversity of the natural world.

In 2023, the exhibition Iris van Herpen: Sculpting the Senses premiered at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. Following its debut in Paris, it travelled to Australia, Singapore and the Netherlands. It now opens at where it will run until 6 December 2026

In 2024, we were delighted to welcome Iris van Herpen to Making In.

Nakashima Foundation for Peace

This foundation’s mission is to maintain the architecture and the furniture collection that Japanese-American woodworker and architect George Nakashima designed and built on his New Hope, Pennsylvania property. To study, uphold, and perpetuate the great spiritual traditions he embraced and integrated into his work, especially that of Sri Aurobindo, Zen Buddhism, and Christian monasticism. To build Altars of Peace and send them to all parts of the world as ecumenical seeds of Peace planted for all humankind.

In 2022, we were pleased to welcome Mira Nakashima to Making In. Mira Nakashima is the daughter of George Nakashima, President and Creative Director of George Nakashima Woodworkers and President of Nakashima Foundation for Peace.
