Happy Friday ! Well, Halloween is officially behind us so we’re fully back to regular non-themed Weekly Finds around here, but don’t forget that your decor can be goth & spooky year round despite the holiday 🥰 It was a great one this year though, with a big costumed party and fully decked out apartment and it’s taken my old bones a few days to recover from the 5-inch heels dance marathon 😅
This week has been very busy with work, and cool projects I hope to share soon. In the meantime feast your eyes on some goodies for the weekend, I just found these amazing handmade tiles on Etsy that are a must see, a delicious olive velvet armchair and the one and only leopard floor lamp you’ll ever need. Have a fabulous weekend and see you back here on Monday for some glorious inspiration !
The funky looks are back ! Happy Friday all, the weather is dreadful here in Paris so I’m letting these weird and fun pieces bring the sunshine to me ! I knew it was going to be a good week when I stumbled upon this glorious Tom Selleck wallpaper – yes, you read that right. We’ve got funky pillows, a vertigo-inducing rug and a fabulous barbershop inspired sconce guaranteed to bring happiness to everyone. Enjoy the weekend, and keep it funky my friends !
Good morning all and welcome to our favorite yearly event : the AKAA art fair here in Paris ! Now if you’re new here, AKAA (Also Known As Africa) is an international collective comprised of young African artists, that showcase in multiple places around the world during the year and settles in Paris for one weekend each fall. It’s a fabulous event, with mind-blowing art all around and each year it is my pleasure to attend and report back on the fantastic discoveries ! You can catch up on past recaps here : 2018-19 Edition / 2021 Edition / 2022 Edition.
This year, photographs were few and far between as they are no longer in the spotlight in the art world, and while that is my ultimate jam now and forever, I’m happy to report that I found myself very moved by some more classic paintings and very creative multi-disciplinary art – a lot of threads added to paintings, painted over photos, the furry frames of course, and some beautiful sculptures. All in all a lot of newness, beauty and creativity throughout. Take a look for yourself at the pieces that spoke to me most and enjoy the ride !
I hope this little trip through the fair will have inspired your day and your creativity. You can click on each artists’ name to see more of their work and give them some love online, and make sure to follow AKAA on Instagram for some more “insider” tours.
