ABOUT
Hi, my name is Alex, and I’m the creator of M O K A N, a Swiss brand of ethical and contemporary art decor. I started this project out of a deep love for design, forms, and the silent emotions that they carry.
" MY GREATEST INSPIRATION COMES FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE OF MOTHERHOOD AND THE WOMEN IN MY LIFE - MY MOTHER AND MY TWO GRANDMOTHERS - WHOSE BODIES WERE SHAPED, MARKED, AND OFTEN STOOD APART FROM SOCIETY'S STANDARDS. "
Their strength, their beauty, and their vulnerability inspired me to create pieces that celebrate the diversity of real bodies.
M O K A N
" IS ABOUT INCLUSIVITY, EMOTION, INTENTION, AND SLOW MADE DECOR - PIECES THAT EMBODY AND TELL A STORY. "
Each candle is carefully hand-poured using 100% natural soy wax, cotton wick and essential oils for a clean and mindful burn.
The candles, vases or statues are a tribute to softness and strength, and an invitation to honour the presence of all bodies in art, design and space.
The decorative pieces are made with Jesmonite, a water-based, solvent-free material that brings a soft, stone-like texture.
Handcrafted in our studio located in Biel, Switzerland, our original pieces are perfect for dressing the spaces in a very unique and appealing way that adds a touch of sophistication to any setting.
