A window is historically understood as a condition to observe the world. Today computers and smartphones are our new windows to perceive society. These screens try to idealize everything while this is only an illusion of reality.
We start from a perfect squared “screen” that we break into sharp irregular shards. This leads to convex and concave shapes that we compose together as unique fragments that are part of a bigger whole. While breaking is usually related to destroying, here it means creating.
The shelf is made from 3mm stainless steel plates hand-sanded that reflects its surroundings and its complementary shards. This results in a distortion of reality, creating a surreal image from a real object.
