Haige WU, graduated from the Central Saint Martins
in London. She is a London-and Chinese-based artist specializing in sculpture and painting to depict stories
set against the backdrop of personal experience.
Her research focuses on feminism, regional culture,
and self-identity, combining fieldwork and interviews
to gather inspiration and information.​ She joined Duenstudio in 2024, collaborating with kunhong DU
as a partner artist to launch the X Series.​​​​
The founder, Kunhong DU, graduated from the École supérieure d’art et design de Saint-Étienne. He decided to establish his art and design studio in Paris — exploring the intersection of design, sculpture, and everyday life.
His work spans both independent and collaborative projects, with a focus on blurring the boundaries between form and function. Embracing the advances of the technological age, he believes that design should be liberated from constraints — where artistic expression can flow freely into daily objects.
Currently, Duenstudio is devoted to exploring the freedom of organic forms in furniture, collectible pieces in close collaboration with traditional artisans, and galleries. By harnessing the malleability of metal, they integrate emotion, spatial thinking, and artistic concepts into functional pieces. Breaking away from traditional industrial images while upholding the values of craftsmanship, they create furniture, installations, and sculptures that speak in multiple languages — reapplying the values of art to the everyday.
Duen studio was founded in France in 2023.

Leur intérêt commun pour les technologies les plus récentes a toujours guidé leur travail, Par conséquent, ils ont tendance à briser les conventions et à combiner les technologies de l'information avec des méthodes artisanales traditionnelles. Le studio a développé son propre langage, caractérisé par une exagération formelle et une construction précise, créant ainsi une narration visuelle qui, même si elle est complexe, dégage une impression de légèreté. L'apprentissage, la liberté, la curiosité et le défi sont toujours les thèmes dominants de leur création.
