2021 Edition

Hand made process becomes one of the major movements of our time and can be understood as the repetition of skills that belong to our common past, exuding a sense of belonging and continuity. We hanker after things with a sense of human touch. The love and energy that goes into making things is part of what we buy. My method is about both moving forward and looking back. Gone are the clean lines of the past. In the digital age, it seems we crave the imperfections of analogue. Some imperfections are important in helping us to understand the world. Couple a craving for imperfection and the concept of luxury. I concentrated on the hands-on manipulation of paper to create comfortable to sit design models, to discover unique forms which ultimately developed into sculptural pieces in their own right. Now it makes sense that we’re choosing to fill our homes with handcrafted objects made from natural materials. Modern minimalism is a freedom from the trappings of consumer culture. It is a tool to rid yourself of life’s excess in favour of focusing on what’s important, enhance the meaning of what we chose to retain. Shifting from the produced to the personalised with environmental concerns about the throwaway culture. Furniture occupies a special place in not only home, but they also have a strong impact on the psyche of persons using it. The theory of less is more isn’t about spending less. It is about getting the greatest soul impact though careful editing and restraint.
