Digital Landscapes



Wall mounted tiles and tableware presenting digital landscapes as future floral narrative. Tableware and other houseware have been tools for storytelling and heritage of cultural symbols, values and beliefs. Landscapes and floral motives have been subjects for their décor and ornament since ancient times. They expressed the desire to bring nature home and celebrate wealth and wellbeing.

How our future past will look like? What new traditions will emerge?
Together with designer Renana Ir Shai we use optic 3d scan to create digital “epidermis”, an outer digital layer of scanned plants, enabling us a microscopic tour inside the 3d space and structure.

Default 3d software displays were used as a way to enhance details and blur original scale and proportions leading to imaginative landscapes presenting a hyper nature wilderness.
