Southway Studio
Emmanuelle Luciani
Founded by Emmanuelle Luciani & Charlotte Cosson in 2013, Southway Studio is as active in curating exhibitions and organizing artist residencies as it is in the design and production of art objects and interior decoration.
Southway's aesthetic is positive, sunny and imbued with references to the ancient and medieval past and the art of the Mediterranean world, particularly in terms of form (column and scroll motifs). In this way, Southway seeks to establish a dialogue between the territory of Marseille, its cultural heritage (local crafts, architecture, lifestyle) and contemporary art, offering the public a new form of contemporary art, at one with the domestic and everyday environment.
Emmanuelle Luciani, Artistic Director of Southway Studio, highlights the need for the decorative and handmade after a second half of the 20th century of exacerbated modernism and utilitarianism.
