About the object
Kanagawa room divider
The artist concept was to create a structure that could be used as a room divider, which she combined with textiles. She strove for simplicity when creating the form, because she also wanted to emphasize the patterning. She chose wood as the basic material, which she started working with for the first time in 2021, the first year of her master’s degree. For pattern formation, she created a system using the Bullet Journal method, with which she has been tracking her various habits every day for 9 months.
