Volyk — a derivative of the Ukrainian word for “freedom”.
The author’s idea — to create something life- affirming and pure in its nature resulted in a series of animistic creatures with a free character. Hand- sculpted with a sustainable material in a technique once employed for wall-finish in traditional Ukrainian dwellings, the primitive benches stay true to Victoria Yakusha’s philosophy of live design.
*Please note that each item is one-of-a-kind and differs in texture due to a handcrafted process of creation.
Hand-sculpted in the author’s signature sustainable material Ztista — a blend of paper, clay, hay, and other live elements conceived to one day return to nature. Wooden frame.
