Natural materials

Studio

Through dialogue and collaboration, we refine ideas and formulate themes that we, as artists, want to explore. The studio's focus opens up a wide range of possibilities, and we are willing to try everything we find interesting and that leads to a convincing result. The Natural Materials Studio is a place where we collectively get to the essence of materials and technologies to understand their foundations and creatively shape them further. We focus on the creative process and follow the direction in which a concept, technology, or material leads us. What we create with our hands is diverse, and the result of our work can be an object, a sculpture, an interactive installation, or experimental design. We value our own physical experience during the creative process and learn through it. The environment in which a piece is created becomes essential to us, as does the place for which the work is designed. We work with technologies and materials, striving to find the right proportions and relationships, not only physical ones but also semantic ones.
