sophie dries
"I DON’T WANT TO BRAND MYSELF WITH A CERTAIN STYLE. IT’S TRUE THAT MAYBE I DON’T HAVE A LABEL THAT’S EASY TO SUM UP IN THREE SENTENCES, BUT I THINK WHAT’S TYPICAL FOR MY WORK IS REALLY MY USE OF MATERIALS AND TEXTURES WITH PURE LINES AND TO CREATE CONTRAST. I’M OBSESSED WITH PARADOXES. I REALLY WANT EVERY PROJECT TO BE DIFFERENT AND BESPOKE."

HIS WORK PRIMARILY FOCUSES ON THE INTERCONNECTION OF THREE SPHERES: NATURE, ANIMALS, AND HUMANS, EMPHASISING HUMANITY‘S INHERENT TIES TO NATURE DESPITE OUR MODERN DETACHMENT.
ULA SANIAWA
CLAY CAPTIVATED ULA WITH ITS TACTILE, RAW VULNERABILITY AND INSPIRED HER TO REFLECT ON THE ORIGIN OF HUMAN CONNECTION, HOW WE FIT IN THE WORLD THAT SURROUNDS US AND WHAT MAKES US WHO WE ARE. EVERY LIVING BEING’S INTRINSIC BLEND OF ALGORITHMIC DNA AND SPONTANEOUS EVENTS IS A THEME ECHOED IN MY WORKS.
