Viva Musa: Spring 2026
Sonya Winner's most recent collection begins, as her best
work often does, with a journey! A 2025 trip through Mexico
— which produced the Colores de México series, exploring
the sun-saturated architecture and luminous palettes and
discovery of the work of architect Luis Barragán. This led
Sonya deeper into questions of identity, symbolism and the
visual language of this rich culture.
"Travelling through Mexico opened my eyes to the
confidence of colour and visual storytelling that runs through
so much of its artistic culture," she says. "Frida Kahlo's
presence and symbolism continue to be incredibly powerful,
and I wanted to explore how that spirit could be translated
into wool through colour, structure and layered tone."
The second piece, Mexico Sun, draws from Mexican visual
traditions with the same rigorous instinct for bold color
and form. Sun Rays extend outward in layered sequences,
generating a radiating warmth, with variations in pile height
giving the sun's centre a sculptural lift.
The USA has become the studio's most significant market,
with many collectors now owning in excess of ten pieces.
Sonya and her team only sell directly to collectors for their
homes or through interior decorators – beware of poor
quality cheap ilegal imitations!
