“Meta-mind”

My final project deals with humans' ability to control and manage their own consciousness and thoughts. Concerning this, over the last few years, I have conducted research that has led me to focus on the changes in typical patterns of human behavior by controlling one's own mind. With that ability, one can drive to create a better reality. I decided to express this subject matter in my design through the tension expressed in the materials and forms, lines, masses, and weight. These formalistic components that interface with the body and with one another, refine, in my opinion, the questions that arise. Materials | veg-tanned leather, 925 Silver, stainless steel, PLA+. Working techniques | construction of my anatomical dummy, 3D scanning, digital modeling, 3D printing, laser cutting, wet molding, traditional goldsmithing, casting.
