The ‘Murmur’ series are ambiguous sculptural figurative forms that display a sombre anthropomorphic disposition. Inspired by soft vulnerable postures observed in day-to-day interactions, the vessels are made to be grouped as if in quiet conversations. Made using sheet metal, decorated with different tactile patterns and textures, the vessels are hand raised in two separate parts to create leaning forms. ‘Squat’ is a further development of the Murmur series. With a similar disposition to the ‘Murmur’ collection, the vessel takes on a different, more upright but hunched posture.
