nOM nOM SERIES

THE NOM NOM SERIES EXPLORES THE TRANSLATION OF INDUSTRIAL FABRICATION INTO CONTEMPORARY CRAFT.

USING A SINGLE, REPEATABLE PIPE FORM, EACH PIECE INVESTIGATES HOW MINOR SHIFTS IN ORIENTATION CAN GENERATE ENTIRELY NEW OUTCOMES. THE CIRCLE BECOMES A STARTING POINT-NOT AS FIXED GEOMETRY BUT AS A SYSTEM CAPABLE OF PRODUCING RHYTHM, FLOW AND VARIATION THROUGH SIMPLE INTERVENTION.

THESE WORKS DRAW ON THE INHERENT LOGIC OF INDUSTRIAL COMPONENTS, WHERE EFFICIENCY AND REPETITION ARE PRIORITISED AND REFRAME THEM WITHIN A MORE SENSITIVE, INTERIOR CONTEXT. THE RESULT IS A TENSION BETWEEN PRECISION AND INTUITION: OBJECTS THAT ARE ENGINEERED, YET FEEL ORGANIC IN THEIR MOVEMENT.

THE USE OF HOT FORMED CARBON STEEL RETAINS A MEMORY OF PROCESS BENEATH THE POWDERCOATED SURFACE. WHILE MACHINED BRASS FITTINGS INTRODUCE A CONTRASTING LEVEL OF REFINEMENT AND DETAIL.

CANDLES EXTEND THE COMPOSITION RATHER THAN SIMPLY OCCUPYING IT. INTRODUCING LIGHT, WARMTH AND TEMPORALITY INTO OTHERWISE PERMANENT FORMS.

ULTIMATELY, THE SERIES IS AN EXPLORATION INTO HOW INDUSTRIAL LANGUAGE CAN BE SOFTENED, REORIENTED AND REIMAGINED. TRANSFORMING FAMILIAR MATERIALS INTO OBJECTS THAT FEEL BOTH GROUNDED AND UNEXPECTEDLY FLUID.
