Vitalli x Nina Lieska
Blurring the lines between design and photography, Vitalli and photographer Nina Lieska’s recent exhibition Fracture and Form at Cape Town Furniture Week 2025 proved so impactful that it won the Best in Show award.
A dynamic, transformative experience for viewers, the collaboration which highlighted Vitalli’s sculptural furniture and Nina’s evocative photography explored nature’s fractured beauty, with pieces from the Tectonic Collection and Nina’s Suspended series.
Where fractured geometry meets sculptural elegance: The RIFT Coffee Table and Fragment Rug evoke the raw power of mountainous terrain, offering a striking presence and an extraordinary aesthetic for those with an eye for the exceptional.
Vitalli’s official debut of the latest additions to the Tectonic Collection draws from the deep time of landscapes, those spaces where pressure, erosion, and rupture define the terrain. As such, the Rift Coffee Table, with its ‘fractured’ dynamic geometry, mimics the seismic forces of mountainous terrain, while the Fragment Rug, an expanse of mercurial lines and multifaceted formations, reinforce the aesthetic power of the natural landscape, when viewed from above.
Tectonic Transformation
In turn, Nina’s photography counterbalances the sculptural weight of the pieces, capturing not landscapes but the unseen forces that shape and erode them. Together, these works blur the boundaries between solidity and softness, presence and absence, leaving audiences immersed in a world of change and imperfection.
