Our work is a quest to find a new function for discarded objects, to give them a new role, a new shine. In an industrial landscape where made objects and information flows overwhelm us, we find fulfillment in building creations out of various objects that were previously sitting without purpose.
Seeking hidden similarities between objects and striving in parallel to interpret thoughts are our great passions. We feel a need to interact with these forgotten elements, to work with their poetic potential and engage people with their new existence. An unceasing search for beauty, sifting through the detritus of everyday life.
