This evocative project reimagines glass and paper as vessels for memory and imagination, offering a poetic exploration of materiality and craft. The title draws from the ancient art of making and storytelling, reflecting the creative forces that shape art, literature, and design. Materials transcend their physical form, becoming bridges between the tangible and the intangible. Their shapes and hues carry emotion, memory, and meaning, evoking craftsmanship as a form of language.
 

POETICA explores the delicate balance between the ordinary and the abstract, where objects reveal hidden dimensions through their interaction with their surroundings. Each piece unfolds new layers of meaning, in a storytelling that begins in the mind of the designer, evolves through the hands of the craftsman, and finds its full expression in the eyes of the viewer. A poetic cycle is thus co-created – design, craftmanship and perception – resulting in an ever-evolving narrative that extends beyond the object itself.
 

POETICA culminates in a celebration of collaboration—not just between materials but between visionaries and makers. WonderGlass, with the collaboration of Calico Wallpaper and Officine Saffi Lab, brings together an installation that explores the space between creation and perception, where the familiar is transformed into the extraordinary, and where the art of making becomes poetry itself.
