Life & Style

Eva Langret

You wouldn’t expect anything less than visionary creativity from the Artistic Director of Frieze London. So it’s no surprise that Eva Langret’s edit of favourite things runs from the sumptuous to the sculptural, and the stylish to the sensual…

A Note From Eva

“Many of the objects I treasure were found in flea markets and second-hand shops in Paris, Lisbon, Cairo, London and further afield. This shelf edit is inspired both by my own possessions and by things I wish I owned. Anthropomorphic vessels and woven textiles are an ever-growing obsession. Preparing and serving tea is another great source of pleasure; the ritual brings me peace and comfort, and is perhaps what I enjoy the most, above the beverage itself. I do not handwrite as much as I would like to but I still collect cards and stationary. Lastly, I have included a couple of limited-edition artist’s prints, which are a great way to support arts organisations and start building a collection of your own.”
