Amata Benedict

Amata Benedict create art and interiors through an artistic partnership that is very much based on the principles of the renaissance 'bottega’ workshop. 

Their studio is a place where disparate disciplines can merge to create artworks that integrate the space between the functional object and the work of art. 

They make pieces from pre-existing things, often using fragments of used textiles, deconstructed and reconfigured furniture as well as fabricating metal sculptures and building with clay. Their works are inspired by everything from ancient art to everyday contemporary household objects.

Amata studied Interior Design at the Glasgow School of Art, working at World of Interiors before gaining more pragmatic skills at studios including Lockbund Foundry, Fiorini and Cox London while Benedict studied sculpture at Central Saint Martins, later completing an apprenticeship in fabrication at Pangolin Editions. He went on to gain a Masters in Fine Art at City and Guild’s Art School. 

We are enchanted by their creations and are very excited to share them with you.
