“Nature Is a Temple 2”
On View at Collect Open 2026
I am delighted to present my newest cabinet and mirrors at Collect 2026 at Somerset House, London.
This presentation marks a continuation of my exploration of straw marquetry and the cabinet as a narrative object.
-
The cabinet continues the language introduced in Nature Is a Temple, developed here through a new image, pattern composition, wood selection and chromatic palette. It refines the formal and material vocabulary while maintaining the structural clarity of the original work.
-
The mirrors develop softer forms rooted in the archetype of the frame. Their deconstruction reexamines the object’s conventional function.
-
Displayed here are material studies and 3D prototypes that investigate new structural and formal directions. They form an integral part of the ongoing development of the work.
