10 SONGS… (VOL. 17) BY MOREVI
“10 songs for the blue hour”
Morevi is the creative moniker of the talented duo Ana Naskidashvili and Frederik Poisquet. Fre and I met while working at an art center, and it didn’t take long to realize we were on the same page about, well, pretty much everything—life, health, careers, relationships. Naturally, I connected with Ana too, someone so close and dear to him, and it’s easy to see how their connection fuels their creative partnership.
Bound by a shared vision rooted in a connection to nature, a reverence for natural materials, an appreciation for ancient crafts, and a passion for exploring diverse cultures through travel, Morevi was born from a desire to reconnect with slow, meaningful craftsmanship. Creating unique pieces using natural materials and traditional methods that forge deeper connections with the land, the resources, and the people who engage with them.
I recently visited their exhibition at Lina’s, and what struck me wasn’t just the aesthetics of their work, but how seamlessly Ana and Fre seem to blend with their creations. Raw, large, powerful—yet warm and inviting. There's a quiet humility to them that offers a sense of tranquility, and makes you feel at ease. It’s no surprise given that Ana’s roots are deeply woven into their work. Hand-felted tapestries have significant historical importance in Georgia, particularly in the Tusheti region. Traditionally crafted by families as central pieces in their homes, these tapestries foster a sense of belonging and connection.
We had the pleasure to hang one from their Liminal series in our shop on De Kronenburgstraat, and once it was up, the space transformed, making it truly ready to welcome visitors.
Morevi hand-dyes their pieces with indigo pigment, resulting in deep blue tones reminiscent of the twilight zone between day and night. This ethereal quality likely inspired their “10 songs for the blue hour”!
Laying down on one of their tufted pillows as I write this little introduction and giving their playlist a spin, I feel lucky to call Ana and Fre my friends.
