This research is driven by a desire to play, using discarded materials like tubes and fishing ropes found in dumpsters. By uncovering their hidden potential, I transform them into monumental works that evoke a renewed sense of curiosity and wonder.
Continuous Play - Curiosity and Potential - Monumental Objects
This research is driven by a deep desire to engage in continuous play, emerging from the pressures and urgency that increasingly dominate daily life, which I believe dampens our natural inclination toward playfulness. For me, play is a form of freedom that I strive to preserve. The project began by examining everyday objects I encountered while cycling past dumpsters, with colored tubes catching my attention and serving as the initial inspiration.
My curiosity focuses on discarded, damaged, or functionless materials, where I see unexplored potential and an impulse to engage in play. These materials, including those retrieved from dumpsters and discarded fishing ropes, become the tools of my research, allowing me to create an interplay of color, matter, and texture.
Using discarded materials also enables the creation of monumental works. The knotting technique I use is chosen for its versatility, offering extensive possibilities. A key aspect of my creative process involves exploring the inherent potential within these materials. Through this exploration, I uncover their capabilities and transform them into objects designed to evoke a renewed sense of curiosity and wonder.
