Inhabiting
The exhibition Inhabiting, presented at the Joyce Yahouda Gallery, is my master's thesis project. Inspired by mosaics and quilts, by their intrinsic connection to the inhabitable and the fragment, I transposed these techniques into the paper I made.
Fragmentation stimulates and shapes much of my compositions. The multiplied unity and the organization of this multitude into more or less regular systems stem from a fascination for the complexity and singularity of the atomic assemblages that we are.
