| The Fantasy collection by Jaime Hayón |
The Fantasy collection combine's Lladró's usual themes with the magic of the unexpected
Hayón is known for. The obvious references to love, the family, childhood or the magic of
the circus are coupled with the expressiveness of the decoration, further enhanced with
the use of the reds, blues and turquoises created especially for the collection. Elements
like the shoes, the original octagonal bases and even the candles for the candleholders,
have been decorated specifically in the same colors. And it is this perfect balance between
expression and function that makes these pieces from The Fantasy such highly prized
objects which, over and above their decorative potential, awaken the fantasy of lovers of
Lladró. As a point of interest, the character in the series The Lover is wearing the shoes
Hayón designed for Camper.
The Fantasy is, in short, a “positive cross-pollination” of Hayón's world with Lladró, as the
designer put it himself. One can speak of a “perfect fusion” between the brand's porcelains
and Hayon's touches of fantasy. In fact, he has even introduced elements from his past
repertoire, like the Cactus or the Green Chicken. In this recreation of his own woHayón demonstrates his admiration for the infinite potential of Lladró porcelains. |
