Caressed by a sequence of folds and turns, 'Felt' is a sculpture series that spotlights carpet underlay, a concealed layer typically hidden from sight. This obscured material serves diverse functions—cushioning, slip resistance, friction reduction, and sound absorption. Boldly emerging into the foreground, it undergoes a transformation and acquires a kind of fresh vitality by taking on unfamiliar forms. With every fold, they shape-shift into and adopt new personas, wandering into uncharted realms of life as works of art. Captured in a perpetual state of motion, they embody organic growth, movement, and a yearning for new experiences—undertaking individual journeys to lean, roam, roll, and rest.
