Ibbini Studio

Ibbini Studio is a collaboration creating works in contemporary art and design and that explore the boundaries of possibilities between human and machine.

Julia Ibbini is a visual artist and designer, Stephane Noyer is a computer scientist and maker. Together they traverse analogue and digital to create works with highly detailed machined precision, but which remain distinctly human in origin.

In the last few years, their work has been shown at Art Basel Miami, with Jonathan LeVine Projects, Pen & Brush NYC, and the Sharjah Islamic Arts Festival. In 2019, the studio received theVan Cleef & Arpels Middle East Emergent Designer Prize. In addition to private collectors, the studio has a number of corporate clients including Ministry of Presidential Affairs Abu Dhabi, Galleria Mall (Sowwah Central), St. Regis Amman, New York University Abu Dhabi, Emaar and Tamkeen to name a few.

Julia and Stephane are interested in exploring different materials, techniques and scale; finding ways to highlight through design objects the fascinating amount of mathematics involved behind much of the traditional design inherent in the region.

Ibbini Studio were participants in Tanween 2020.
