Oversized Artist-Designed Plates

Tiwa Select's Collection of Plates Are Designed by 13 Artists

— August 5, 2021 — Art & Design
LA-based design platform Tiwa Select launched a collection of oversized plates as outdoor entertaining becomes more accessible. The brand features 13 artists in the collection. The oversized plates explore the artists' different craft techniques, making for a unique ensemble of artistic kitchenware.

Titled Big Plates, the curated collection includes Vince Skelly's statuesque carved wooden serving plates as well as Minjai Kim's ethereal quilted fibreglass creations. Tiwas Select aims to showcase the many interpretations of what can be considered a plate to refresh some tableware staples. In addition, Big Plates encourages viewers to contemplate and discuss the very idea of what constitutes design through its varying styles. The objects aim to take up space and hold their own kind of power, according to Alex Tieghi-Walker.
