Design by Ali Bakova

Memento Mori, from the Latin ‘Remember you will die’, is less a doom-laden prophecy, but instead an inducement to live every day to the full, as if it might be your last.

Distinguished by its striking gold coating enhancing the bottom, this NUDE Memento Mori sculpture introduces a luxe theme to the range of skull-shaped ornaments. Created by the Istanbul-based designer, Ali Bakova, and forged from clear crystalline glass, it’s a contemporary statement crafted from a traditional material.

INTRODUCING

Ali Bakova

Turkish industrial designer Ali Bakova works from a studio in the large industrial zone of Istanbul’s business district, Maslak, where creative offices and auto repair shops – designers and industry – live side-by-side. In 2015, Bakova, who is also one of the city’s most respected design educators, co-curated an exhibition entitled Atölye Maslak Maker Culture during which the small-scale production of artistic and artisanal objects was conducted on-site, using 3D printers. Bakova’s work can be playful – he may fashion a cat from Iznik tiles or a wooden chair taking its cues from the iconic Galata Bridge – but it also focuses on purity, what is essential and smart functionality.
