ZOSA is a Cape Town-based creative studio founded by artist Kristina Pinkert. After moving from Berlin, Kristina pursued her passion for textiles, creating a space rooted in playfulness and ease. Her work blends colors and shapes with an intuitive, subtle balance.
Each piece is handcrafted with care, available in limited editions or as one-of-a-kind items. Her designs evolve with the seasons and materials while always emphasizing quality and originality. At ZOSA, every creation is made to order, allowing for individuality and honoring the journey of creation.
Kristina Pinkert was born in East Germany to a Polish mother and a German father, growing up at the intersection of these two cultures. The fall of the Berlin Wall at age 9 influenced her understanding of transition and identity. After studying Design, Kristina spent half a year in Barcelona, where she cultivated her passion for sewing and screen printing. This journey was further inspired by her Polish grandmother, an exceptional sewist. Now based in South Africa, she founded ZOSA, a creative studio that reflects her rich heritage through textile art.
