Pearls of the Tree
Helsinki 2014
Task
Create a piece that is situated in the grey area between art and design. The winners got to exhibit their work in a pop up gallery in Lasipalatsi in Helsinki center. Orgnanized by NuDe, Nuoret Designerit (Young designers) by Aalto University, school of art, design and architecture
Challenge
My first plan was to have three birds sitting in the piece. But this work demanded an enormous amount of time, so I had to reduce the design.
Solution
I used to think that art is decoration and design is function, which I definately do not think anymore. Nevertheless I made a birdstopper for balconies. That is at least how I interpreted the work back in 2014.
