Shahar Livne (Israel, 1989) is an award-winning conceptual material designer located in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
During her undergraduate years at the Design Academy Eindhoven, Livne ignited her lifelong passion in nature, biology, science, and philosophy developed into intuitive material experimentation way of work. Shahar's body of work focuses on conceptual material research in a multi-levelled methodology, bringing to life unique stories through objects and installations centered around materials as carriers of narratives.
Some of Livne's projects deal with obscure materials such as blood, man-made fossils, crystallisation, and more. Her projects’ starting points are often stories about places, cultures, and relations with resources in the past, present, and future. Currently, she presents her works internationally and creates new projects as an independent designer, curator, educator, and as a collaborator with world-renowned brands, institutes, and museums worldwide.
