Work with Hayat

Commission a work

I make work for people and for places. Tell me what the piece has to do and I will tell you what it would take.

A work made for a place

I make works for lobbies, headquarters, hotels, embassies and institutions. A work for a place has to live with the people who pass it every day. So I start with the place itself: I visit, I listen, I look at the light and the traffic of the room. Then I bring a concept and a material study, so you can see and touch what the work will be made of. When it is approved, I build it in my studio and I install it myself.

For brands

My work on your product

Limited editions, packaging, capsule collections, campaign artwork, in store installations. When my work goes on your product, my name goes with it. So I only say yes to what I believe in. I will not put my name on something that hurts people or pretends to care. I will put it on work that is honest, made well and means something.

  1. You send the brief.
  2. I tell you if it is a fit, and what I would make.
  3. We agree the edition, the use and the terms.

Collaborations are considered case by case. Send the brief.

For collectors

Make an existing work yours

Choose a work from a collection and I will change it for you. A different scale, a different palette, a word or a name worked into the surface, a detail that means something only to you. It is faster and smaller than a full commission, and the work stays mine in spirit and yours in meaning.

  1. Pick the work.
  2. Tell me what it needs to carry.
  3. Approve the study.

For private collectors

A work that exists only for you

This is a work made from nothing, for one person or one home. I will want to know the room, the light, and what the piece is meant to say. Then I go away and listen to it. I bring you a study. When it is right, I make it, and I bring it to you.

  4. The delivery
