My work fuses the functional and the sculptural, allowing both to coexist and act as an invitation for interaction.
The intention behind the project was actually the internal, studiobased process of development and creation itself. This partially consisted of selecting colors for the tiles, selecting colors for the light works and understanding how those interacted with each other.
