_THE BIRTH OF ALICE // ss2025

Alice is an outdated robot allergic to human existence. The playful design takes inspiration from a lady bug, prompting thought about the relationship between nature and technology. Junichiro Tanizaki’s 1933 literature - In Praise of Shadows - is a strong inspiration that inspired thoughts about light, culture and technology. The character is carried on to the design of the Sneezing Robot.

_CUBE WORLD // ss2025

Cube World is a web-based piece that reflects on the screen-based reality that our generation lives in. By imagining a world where everything known to human knowledge is exactly what others had encased within these cubes, I want to question the way that knowledge is passed on in our digital age.
