"In my design practice I have a very hands on approach to materials and processes. this gives insight and inspires me to explore new possibilities In the studio I gather materials and make DIY variations of industrial processes in order to find news ways of using these Yet I'm extremely fascinated by industrial manufacturing and some of the work created in the studio has most potential when brought back to industry."
The exhibition presented at C-Space presents two works: -Fabricate", an industrially woven light-shade collection. This product originates from learning the weaving process on a handloom Then further developed specific for digitally controlled Jacquard weaving looms And there are new additions to the -Shelter collection This collection is created by laborious work of taking woven fabric apart by hand in order to create new geometrical designs Each piece is unique and is a result from a series of tests to find a balance between creating a new image while maintaining the structure of the fabric.
