The Night You Left Coaster by Nir Hod

Nir Hod, Israeli artist living in NYC just launched his first product design – The night you left, a set of 4 mirrored coasters inspired by his series of oil on mirror paintings entitled with the same name. Hod bottles the recurring themes of introspection and longing contemplated in this body of work into a functional object: mirrored coasters, lined with digitally printed white powder.

The Night You Left masterfully captures a heightened and ephemeral emotional state; a moment of solitude and self-revelation. It is a meditation on love and love lost, on pain and catharsis. “There is a certain magic in loneliness,” Hod explains, “you have to be alone to create,” adding, “It’s not about drugs or glamour—it’s about the inside world, where you can dream and love and seek a greater truth—it’s about a feeling of being connected to something so human.”
