Three years ago clay arrived. From that exact moment it felt as natural as breathing. Giorgia Piu — Rose de Nour — is a ceramicist based in Rome with strong Mediterranean roots, a background in painting and drawing, and an approach to clay that is completely her own: contemplative, instinctive, and deeply rooted in the earth.

Analogue woman from 1973. Carpenter's daughter. Textile, wood, brass and embroidery. Solo exhibition in Madrid coming up. Tilde Grynnerup on intuition, gut feeling, working-class feminism, and why the art world finally feels like home.

There is a moment, in every serious perfume, when the smell stops being a smell and becomes a place. Johan Bergelin understood this because he understood it first as a painter, a photographer, and a musician — someone who had spent decades asking how experience could be held in a form before he ever asked that question about a bottle.
