CONCEPT
Highly acclaimed photographer
Iran Issa-Khan is renowned
for her black/white and sepia
plant images, bought by
collectors, hoteliers and designers
including Paloma Picasso
who visited Mission’s exhibition.
Natural Form provided an
opportunity to show Issa Khan’s
work for the first time in the UK,
alongside an exploration
of shapes, curves and forms
as found in nature
and expressed in objects
including furniture, lighting and jewellery.
The exhibition was co-curated
with Michael Wolfson.
Doris Saatchi visited the show
and purchased a Des Doyle armlet.
