Where does Floating Feather come from?

A feather is small, yet purposeful. Light, yet powerful. It neither sinks into water nor disappears into the sky. When feathers join forces, they travel great distances. They exist in the white expanses of the North Pole and are also found among the remnants of once-glorious ancient empires.

The inspiration for the logo comes from the oracle character, 羽, which means “Feather”. In addition, 羽 can also be found in Miki Dai’s Chinese name, 翌.

What does Floating Feather do?

Floating Feather is a studio for impactful and sustainable Sino-Dutch (European) arts and creative projects. Floating Feather initiates interdisciplinary collaborations through the ARTS, thriving to build bridges between cultures, institutions, and perspectives that do not often intersect. From internationally recognised figures to overlooked projects and narratives, Floating Feather connects the visible with the undervalued to tell stories that resonate beyond borders. Through these connections, it aims at translating difference into understanding and weaving past and present into responses to the questions of our time.

Floating Feather works with long horizons in mind. Its projects are built on trust, reciprocity, and care, fostering sustainable partnerships that extend beyond single outcomes. Light in form yet purposeful in intent, it carries ideas and actions forward, towards a more inclusive, resilient, and shared future.
