Symbolising strength as well as compassion, wind represents freedom and enchantment. Ranging from charming light breezes to imposing hurricanes and tornadoes, wind possesses specific resonance in desert lands, where languages and dialects have numerous terms for the myriad movements of air across both sea and sand. From naseem and harmattan to khamsin, sumoom and shamal, these currents of air form part of the cultural heritage of communities that are rooted as much on the waves as they are on the dunes.
Van Cleef & Arpels and Tashkeel invite applicants to create a work of contemporary functional design that responds to the theme of “Inspiring Winds” Submitted proposals should incorporate creativity and innovation to enforce the aspect of form and function.
President of Van Cleef & Arpels Middle East & India, Alessandro Maffi says:
“Van Cleef & Arpels is extremely proud to announce the landmark tenth edition of the Van Cleef & Arpels Middle East Emergent Designer Prize. The Maison’s partnership with Tashkeel has provided emerging artists in the Middle East with the essential support that designers and innovators need to become successful professionals. As one of the region’s longest running prizes, the Emergent Designer Prize has set the benchmark for nurturing design talent by shedding light on the wealth of creativity thriving across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman and Kuwait.”
