I want to work in a public space, but I get distracted. I see a lot of movement and I feel like I’m being watched. I can’t concentrate. My workspace surrounds me, covering my back and sides. I can orient myself while observing the environment. Even encounters from the front are possible.
Being in the public means to be seen by people. I design my appearance. I can hide myself by being super visual. My workspace attracts attention by its material. It looks beautiful and interacts with its surroundings. People become curios about the golden object, not about me and my work. The whole workspace is made of only one material: rescue blankets. Heating and deformation have given them their shape and stability. Thanks
to the flexibility and light weight of the blankets I can role it up and leave for a new place, whenever I want to.
The golden object
Makes people curious and distracts them from me and my work. The whole workspace is made of only one material: rescue blankets. Heating and deformation have given them their shape and stability.
Materiality
The flexibility and lightweight of the material allow the user to roll it up and leave for new places at any moment. Taking the golden shelter to new places brings movement and new inspiration into the works.
