The NRIN series by Miminat Shodeinde transforms metal into fluid, expressive forms. Named after the Yoruba word for "female" (Obinrin), these vessels blend wood and metal, balancing cold brilliance with warmth and movement. Their sinuous, organic shapes reflect both elegance and function. The flowing metal mirrors the softness of femininity, while the central wooden column symbolizes strength and African heritage. Subtle grain textures on the cast aluminum evoke pollen, honoring the vessels' purpose of holding nature’s beauty.
