Artist statement
My sketchbook was full of rectangular parallelepiped lines. I wanted freedom.
Can’t we break the common horizontal, vertical and rectangular structures of furniture?
Until now, furniture were able to function in the exact horizontal and vertical shape. I also wasn't exceptional. When I found myself struggling to design a furniture inside the thoughtlessly drawn rectangular parallelepiped lines, I stopped and started considering about the way of thinking and approaches to furniture design. Later when I saw a ball put on a see-saw in the playground, I could find the way to break horizontal and vertical stereotypes and advanced my thoughts.
