Hadiya Williams is the founder and artist behind Black Pepper Paperie Co. a Washington, DC-based mix-media art + design studio and lifestyle brand. Hadiya started her career in graphic design but knew that her work was always best suited to using her hands. In her exclusive collection for Lulu and Georgia, she uses clay, textiles, and other natural materials to tell visual stories inspired by the culture of the African diaspora. This capsule of wall art, pillows, and tabletop textiles will add a touch of bold pattern to your space. Handcrafted textile wall art collection offers a pleasing arrangement of contrasting shapes, organic silhouettes, and rich textures. Translating into her pillow collection featuring a variety of natural fabrics like silk blends, linens and hemp fibers. Williams lineal artwork explores the relationship between history, cultural memory, migration, and ritual and is reflected impeccably in her set of table napkins and table runners adding a dynamic touch to your table. We love Hadiya’s use of negative and positive space in her designs, resulting in high contrast pieces that make a big impact.
"This collection was a true collaboration but what I always like to include in my work is my continued examination of my lineage, migration, and movement."
