KAMEH’S MANIFESTO

KAMEH’s objects of design are centred around nature and the human self. Not the singular mortal designer behind them. This is why KAMEH is concealed their identity and more importantly preserve their privacy and maintain focus on the pieces. KAMEH wants viewers to enjoy the products and not be concerned about the face behind them. KAMEH is the designer, yes, but also the brand, the pieces, and the story.

In today’s fiercely competitive, busy world, privacy is an instinctive need and an elusive desirable luxury. Luxury is no longer defined only by rare materials and exquisite craftmanship, privacy is today’s true essential scarcest luxury. Privacy indeed is a necessary basis and foundation for a healthy, vibrant, optimally functioning society. Privacy shields us through providing freedom, choice and true independence – freedom from scrutiny, prejudice, pressure to conform, and judgment. This is the shield of the art of KAMEH, you are not permitted to discern features that would betray identity, ethnicity, or gender, and therefore no pre-disposed judgment is invited, empowered or induced. The artist’s anonymity allows the art to remain pure to its exquisite form, loyal to the overarching mandate and fully faithful to the unique vision, mission, values of the brand.

In a world often overshadowed by the complexities of adulthood, KAMEH’s latest collection, the KAMEH 0.3 drop, invites audiences to journey back to the enchanting realm of childhood imagination. Launched in 2022, KAMEH’s eponymous label has quickly garnered acclaim for its innovative designs and commitment to quality craftsmanship.

Drawing inspiration from a time when there were no boundaries or limitations, each piece in the KAMEH 0.3 drop embodies the essence of simplicity and functionality, reimagining minimalism with a childlike sense of wonder.

At the heart of this collection lies a fascinating creative process. Crafted from metal and shaped by the artful interaction of metalwork and air, each piece undergoes a transformative journey as air circulation within the object results in a distinct, one-of-a-kind creation. From perfect forms to delightful imperfections, air breathes life into these objects, evoking a sense of magic and whimsy.

The collection consists of 13 unique objects, with the first three featuring a captivating patina finish to bring colour to the collection. “I was playing again with the perfect imperfection,” says KAMEH. “The patina on the metal is the perfect finish for this collection, adding depth and character to each piece.”

The creative process behind the KAMEH 0.3 drop was both challenging and magical. Working with metal and air presented unique obstacles, yet it was through this interaction that the collection truly came to life. “It was a magical process to watch air transforming such a strong material as metal,” reflects the designer.

KAMEH also spoke about the collection as a celebration of dreams – a reminder that we should never lose touch with our inner child. Each piece invites us to sit, relax, and daydream as if we were back in our childhood, where anything was possible and the world was filled with endless possibilities.
