No Wrong Answers is an interactive artwork exploring modularity, materiality, and the beauty of open-ended systems. The piece consists of a series of rotationally symmetrical truchet tiles, each cast from diverse materials tinted with natural earth pigments. These tiles invite viewers to engage directly, arranging and rearranging them in countless
In the space of the art hub Kula in Cetinjska 15, from Thursday May the 12th to Sunday May the 29th, as part of the first exhibition season, we present the project “Fairy Tale” of the Voždovac Gallery. The project is inspired by the tower as an architectural typology which
“If we could extend our senses in order to perceive our planet in a deeper way, our behavior would change.” - Moon Ribas “In art, artists no longer need to use technology as a tool, we can become technology in order to create new senses.” - Moon Ribas “Sense of
This project was a part of a collaborative design research thesis at the Architectural Association School of Architecture + Design Research Lab. ... As science fiction has become fact the domain of behavior and time are the mediums of our architecture today... XO sits in an uncomfortable world that by necessity needs
Thrilled to share some exciting news — I’ve been awarded the Arts Council England’s Developing Your Creative Practice (DYCP) grant! This support marks a pivotal step in my journey from digital design into material experimentation and physical making. Throughout January to March, I’ll be diving into a hands-on
Smock Tile is a study in how stitch-based logics can be translated into geometric systems and cast surface modules. The project draws on smocking, a textile technique in which fabric is clipped, gathered, and stitched to generate relief patterns. This principle was reinterpreted computationally to explore how stitching motifs can
sillage n. (French, lit. “wake”) (perfumery) The trail left in the air by a body in motion — most often the lingering scent that remains after someone has passed. More broadly, a sensory trace: unseen but perceptible; presence made visible through absence. wake n. (nautical) The visible disturbance left on the
Mix Tiles This series marks my initial exploration into tile-making, where I tested the translation of digital geometry into physical form. Working intuitively, I experimented with 3D printing and basic casting techniques to understand the relationship between surface, depth, and repetition. These pieces were never intended as final artworks but
A modular tiling system inspired by the meditative rakes of Zen gardens, Zenusoid explores how simple curvilinear grooves can orchestrate spatial rhythm. Each tile features a quarter-circle sine wave that continues seamlessly across edges, allowing tiles to connect in fluid loops or branching paths. The system is fully rotational and
To Nereus and to Doris … there were born in the barren sea daughters greatly beautiful even among goddesses: Ploto and Eukrante and Amphitrite and Sao, Eudora and Thetis, and Galene and Glauke … These were the daughters born to irreproachable Nereus, fifty in all. - Hesiod, Theogony 240–264 This was
Particle Flourish is a series of simulations and models that use computation to imagine artificial forms of life. Built from particle systems, the work explores how simple, rule-based interactions can give rise to unexpectedly complex morphologies. Each particle is both a unit and a seed: a carrier of encoded behaviors
Wearable Architectures: Computational Prosthesis Series This body of work explores wearables not as fashion but as architectural experiments at the scale of the body. Developed during my tutoring for DesignMorphine’s Prosthesis chapter, the series uses computational design tools to test how form, structure, and ornament might be reimagined when
