NERIDA
Some forms only need to be seen once
Nerida was born from a fascination with what is organic, unexpected, and difficult to replicate. From observing nature, light, and forms that change depending on the angle from which we look at them.
First comes the trace
The first lines were intuitive. A search for a rhythm that could be translated from paper into metal.
This is where Nerida’s journey began.
Not everything can be planned And that’s exactly the point
Each element is shaped by hand, one after another.
Each one takes on its own form, texture, and place within the composition.
From many small decisions, a single, unrepeatable form emerges.
Behind every form are hands
Behind every decision, a way of seeing
Maria and Jacek bring together craftsmanship, art, and light.
They created Nerida as an object that does more than illuminate a space — it begins to live within it.
Light that becomes a presence
An organic form, hand-shaped metal, and light that reveals its layers one by one.
Nerida changes with the space, the time of day, and the viewer’s perspective. Each time, it can be seen a little differently.
Some stories are best experienced in person
Perhaps this is where the light you’ve been looking for begins.

Black steel with a natural rust finish or brushed brass.

Creators
Behind NERIDA are the artists — Maria and Jacek.
They work with light as a medium of experience.
They create objects and installations that transform the way a space is perceived.
Their work is a dialogue between intuition and structure, between what is visible and what can be felt.
Light Sculpture
We create lighting objects that enter into dialogue with space.
We observe how light and shadow interact with the object, the space, and the human presence.
In Search of Beauty
We follow our intuition and what feels alive within us. We create, explore, and play with form.
Welcome to the world of Gie El, where light and form follow the unexpected.
