Two keys, two materials, two ways of opening and closing. This piece explores how softness, tension, and our oldest instincts shape the way we move through the world. The materials speak — and the interpretation remains open.

In my studio, questions come before knowledge, and materials come before questions. I start with what is at hand — fragments waiting for meaning. Listening becomes a way of working. Loss, both remembered and unfolding, is part of that process. Through absence and imperfection, new forms emerge. Each key in the Key Series opens new layers of meaning — a practice of attention, moving from vulnerability to form.

A reflection on care, frugality and mildness, about finding meaning in what already exists, how materials become whole in the right context.
