The intersection of craftsmanship, design, and architectural thinking. Growing up in a family of ceramic artists, I was exposed to sculpture and 3D visualization at an early age, shaping my understanding of form and structure. By deconstructing objects into their flat states, I explore the meticulous planning behind their creation, gaining a deeper appreciation for design. Using leather as a medium, I construct vessels that transform from 2D shapes into self-sustaining 3D forms, mirroring architectural principles. This process highlights the hidden complexities behind everyday objects and the skill required to bring them to life and share these understandings with consumers.
