This design was highly conceptual. The underlying question is: can our natural instincts and the confines of society coexist?

I played with the ideas of:

all worlds are visible at all times
reality and what is beyond the edge
irrelevant physical clutter of life and the empty void
reality created by society and reality created by the self
found object sculpture
light tree: natural object created from man-made objects
artificiality
mobiles
wafting sheer fabrics
black and white and the place in between
