A project where I give importance/uplift
to natural elements that are overlooked.
Showing myself through my elements
Being aware that my weak point is communication, but I also
know myself well. One of my characteristics is I feel strongly
connected to common natural elements, which I think are
overlooked.
So I created a project where I give importance/uplift
to natural elements, which in this case are the center of
interest (and not the center of attention). Therefore, natural
elements are in the center and be themselves the communication.
Prithvi earth, grass
Transforming something common and boring into
the center of attention.
Choice of boringness, grass.
Grass is never looked at since it is so common even
though it is something we all appreciate once we are
outside.
But why limit its appreciation to just the outside?
Therefore, my goal is to make grass interesting for
the inside by creating a set of objects.
The first one being a lamp.
It consists of metal bent organically, coming out of
a pot base where the grass is, creating the effect of
«growing metal», with the lamp itself representing
the flower growing out. The pot has «holes» with me-
tal behind to symbolize the roots. The grass is visible
in the pot, where it needs to be watered to maintain
it. It will also affect the metal coming out of it, with
rust slowly developing because of the high humidity
of the grass. On the other hand, if the grass is not
taken care of, the rust texture will not appear on the
lamp. Therefore, creating a light that changes with
time according to the grass’s well-being.
