Staging

Steel - welded, polished and coated. 2023.

‍

Exhibitor’s text‍

The work consists of four steel shelves, each exploring human self-staging through storage concepts - display, concealment, and in-between spaces. Together, they demonstrate various self-staging expressions, enhanced through spatial composition and material finishes.

‍

In the physical object, composition and surfaces significantly influence our perception of usability – It’s interesting to consider how this translates to the digital world, where functionality isn't a primary concern.
