SAGA PENNANEN
Michèle Lamy is an iconic figure who defies categorization: she studied law, and during the 60s and 70s, worked as a defense lawyer, while studying with the postmodern philosopher Gilles Deleuze and was involved in the May 1968 protests in Paris before working as a cabaret dancer.
A renaissance woman, Lamy has been a clothing designer, performer, film producer, and restaurateur alongside co-founding Owenscorp.On a daily basis, Lamy functions as the producer of the RO furniture collection, working closely with the artisans in the construction process as well as directing the positioning and presentation of the works, including shows at The Musée D’Art Moderne de la ville de Paris and MOCA LA. In 2014 Lamy created ‘LAMYLAND’, an umbrella term for her independent creative projects and endeavours, bringing together all the key elements integral to her practice – experimentation, collaboration, storytelling and creation. In a sense it is a natural progression to her renowned Les Deux Cafe, the LA cabaret spot she founded, curated and ran for many yearSSaga Pennanen (b. 2003) is a nordic makeup artist.
She studied design and ceramics in Helsinki Arts school where she graduated from in 2022 and graduated as professional makeup artist in 2025, studied to be cosmetologist and worked as a chef in Helsinki.
In young age she formed her visuality into photography and started to work on the field with clients in 2021. Saga Pennanen reflects beautiful & brutal themes of life through the feminine binoculars. Photography and ceramics have been in her blood since she was born. She binds creative energies to ceramics that cannot be expressed in words or pictures.
Her brutalistic approach with ceramics brings nature’s afterlife to you.
