Decorex Talks Programme 2024 Decorex x Natasha Mann Renowned decorative artist, Natasha Mann has been chosen as this year’s creative collaboration for Decorex. Her distinctive geometric pattern design with floral details, features beautiful, gilded elements, reflecting the architecture of the glass canopy roof of Olympia Events. Her designs will be seen throughout the show branding and promotional materials including, website, social media and across the show floor. A former Decorex Making Spaces artisan, Natasha uses traditional techniques to craft custom interior pieces and fine artworks. Her creations are influenced by global decorative art traditions, with a particular emphasis on Moroccan architectural painting on wood. She honed her skills in this specific form of Moroccan decorative painting through a year-long apprenticeship with a master artist in Fez. All her pieces are crafted from natural materials, using hand-ground pigments mixed with egg tempera and 24-carat gold leaf. The geometric designs are hand-drawn using a compass and ruler. Natasha’s work includes decorative paintings for interiors, such as panels, murals, and ceiling designs; small decorative objects, such as boxes and lamps; and individual framed paintings and drawings.
