The article explores Kish o Mat, a collection of Persian-inspired ceramics that celebrate the game of chess, co-created by Sara Khamisi. Drawing inspiration from the ancient origins of chess and its evolution, the collection showcases handmade pieces like the King, Queen, Pawn, and Knight vases. Each piece embodies unique designs, reflecting both the game’s history and the artistic vision behind it. A black and white film, reminiscent of classic French cinema, enhances the narrative by depicting the intertwining of chess and ceramics in a cinematic experience.
"The Kish o Mat collection derives meaning through the language of abstracted form, celebrating chess heritage with Persian-inspired handmade ceramics."
"Sara Khamisi's design incorporates traditional aesthetics while introducing modern interpretations of chess pieces, each functioning as art and homage to history."
