Extending Design: Reflective Encounters – Complementary Project
This sculptural project extends the themes of my main work, Elegant Decay, by exploring texture, form, and material transformation through tactile, three-dimensional outcomes. Inspired by my photographs of decaying buildings and terrazzo tiles in Venice, the work captures the organic qualities of erosion and the subtle changes surfaces undergo over time.
I created a series of sculptural objects using sustainable and repurposed materials, including plaster, eco-resin, natural pigments, and waste from textiles and construction.
The outcomes – tiles, cubes, and fluid forms – are designed for use as wall lights, styling objects, or material palettes. This project prioritises responsible design through conscious material choices and the reuse of waste. It embraces imperfection as both a process and an aesthetic, reflecting the natural beauty of decay, erosion, and transformation.
