Last year Jordan’s focus broadened to another way of working with new materials; made from EPS, tile adhesive and mesh. This process is comparable with paper-mâché. Though not fragile but becoming strong as concrete. Layer on layer, repetitive motions become versatile.

“LET’S TURN SHARP INTO ROUND, DARK INTO LIGHT AND METAL INTO SOMETHING MORE FLUID." Jordan Artisan.

The building materials Jordan use normally depict despair; they are to be hidden underneath the floor, within a wall or behind a tile. After experimenting with the materials, Jordan found an innovative way of using them and giving them new aesthetics.
