NOVEMBER 16, 2021Lindex presents design collaboration with Emilia Ilke – the Swedish artist known for her playful compositions and signature shapes. Together, Emilia and Lindex have designed a unique nightwear collection with soft matching pieces for women, kids and baby.
‘We are very excited to launch our collaboration with Emilia Ilke. Emilia has a unique way of turning everyday objects into soft shapes that create small stories. Like little rooms with their own universe, all from Emilia’s creative mind. With Emilia’s strong vision and a soft playfulness in focus, the collection we have created together is like a dream‘ says Camilla Madsen, Head of Design at Lindex.
Emilia Ilke is a Swedish artist characterised by her signature shapes and playful compositions and whose work can be experienced in art exhibitions as well as in interior design. Together, Emilia and Lindex have created a unique and soft nightwear collection – the pyjamas, the nightshirt, the blanket and the cosy, quilted robe that works just as well at home as on the outdoor walk. The collection includes pieces for women, kids and baby, for mini me matching. All pieces are made in soft organic cotton and are GOTS certified.
’When I was asked to collaborate with Lindex, I was both flattered and happy to get the chance to reach out with my art in a whole new way. I have felt a lovely support from the Lindex team throughout this whole journey and it has been a fun challenge to think body instead of canvas. My goal has been to create soft unisex pieces in organic cotton that I want to dress my own kids in. In every step of the way I have had them in mind and now that the collection is finished, I’m excited for the evening so I can put on their pyjamas! Although they will probably wear some of the pieces in the day as well, just like you will see me outdoor in the quilted robe’,says Emilia Ilke.
The collection will be available at lindex.com and in selected stores on 13 December.

”Since I work from home a lot, the main room in our home is usually in a constant state of redecoration, based on what kind of project I am working on at any given moment.”

”A flounder, two sailors, three crabs… A clever book for the little ones about the numbers one to ten with the sea as the theme. On some of the spreads, the numbers are hidden behind gaps and it is up to the reader to look! The artist Emilia Ilke’s pictures are naive, painted in soft colors and filled with low-key humor. Expecting the Sea is her first children’s book published at Mirando bok.”

I dag har jag och keramikern Malwina Kleparska vernissage på Galleri Anna H i Göteborg.
Emilia Ilke, bildkonstnär, född i Uppsala 1984, är bosatt i Stockholm och utbildad på Gerlesborgsskolan i Stockholm 2014–16.
Malwina Kleparska, keramiker, född i Stockholm 1990, är bosatt i Göteborg och studerade vid HDK/Valand – Högskolan för konst och design, där hon tog sin kandidatexamen i keramik 2016.
I utställningen “Klipper du så tummar jag” möter vi två konstnärer. Emilia Ilke som arbetar med kollage och Malwina Kleparska som arbetar med keramik. Inför utställningen har de flirtat friskt med varandras lekfulla tillvägagångssätt och låtit sig inspirerats av det gemensamma något naivistiska uttrycket.
Ilkes urklippta former kan här återses i en tredimensionell form, samtidigt som Kleparskas keramiska verk återkommer i kollagen. Gemensamt för de båda konstnärerna är intresset för mönster, matta ytor och ett sug efter ljust gul och dassig blå. En längtan efter sol och salta hav.
Med hantverket i fokus och det analoga och repetitiva skapandet liknar processerna varandra. Ilke målar, klipper och klistrar och Kleparska ringlar och tummar. Resultatet blir en lek mellan det tvådimensionella och tredimensionella.
