MVS Cutting Boards Black, Brown, Pink, Red

by Muller Van Severen

Cutting Board BBPR Muller Van Severen cooksandpoets 2

The MVS Cutting Boards Black, Brown, Pink, Red offer a bold, graphic gesture to modern kitchens. But make no mistake: these poly­eth­yl­ene boards are made to be used. Each member of the quartet boasts its own faceted shape, satu­rated hue, and helpful size. The small, sanguine red is just the spot to slice an onion, while the large pool of black would make a strik­ing canvas for arrange­ments of cheese and dried fruit. And when they’re finished serving, the boards form their own an abstract expres­sion on kitchen walls when hung (and re-arranged) on a stamped brass peg-cum-wall text. Photog­ra­pher Fien Mueller and sculp­tor Hannes Van Severen bring their graphic sensi­bil­ity — utiliz­ing a keen eye for compo­si­tion, form, and light and shadow and a strong sense of mate­r­ial possi­bil­ity — out of the gallery and into the kitchen for a line of acces­sories that are true works of art.

Muller Van Severen

Belgium

As artists, Muller being a photographer and Van Severen being a sculptor, they are best known for their simple geometric lines and appreciation of materials. Their distinct minimalism has birthed a furniture collection under their combined name, Muller Van Severen, that speaks to art and the function of design.

With materials as the starting point, Muller Van Severen has a fondness for mediums like polyethylene and brass-- both that are used frequently in their works, including the sculpturally interesting four piece Cutting and Serving Boards.

The couple have been on a quest to characterize their works by careful research into their shared passion for art, architecture and materials. At the same time, Muller Van Severen’s designs appear to be created almost intuitively and with total effortlessness.

After winning awards and collaborating with prestigious museums and galleries worldwide, including a group show at the Galerie Kreo in 2014, Muller Van Severen continues to explore the boundaries between art and design in a contemporary and innovative way. All of Muller Van Severen’s own production pieces are handmade with an honesty to the rawness and irregularity of the chosen material.
