In the current economic system,
more and more natural resources are becoming commercial items monopolised by
multinational companies. In a hypothetical future, with the increasing levels
of air pollution, fresh air could become a lucrative commodity.
My current design work develops
around hypothetical containers for commercialised fresh air that people would
carry around to satisfy their needs. As so, these containers would be an
additional artefact to the human outfit.
The idea for this project emerged
from one of my main lines of enquiry, which is the transient state of
materials, since I believe that objects come to life through their process of
change, evolution and interaction. This quest has compelled me to challenge the
‘when, how and where’ the material transformations take place in order to manufacture
movement and transition. My design process relies in the use of a variety of
material combinations and emerging digital technologies together with hand
fabrication and crafting in order to materialize the life within apparently
inert matter.
