These rounded, mushroom-like shapes suggest a society more attuned to nature and liberated from materialism.

The unusual geometry challenges conventional ideas of dwelling and community. Each hemisphere emerges as an individual yet interconnected entity, reflecting both intimacy and collective possibility. Handcrafted in plaster of Paris, the forms carry a tactile sense of fragility and resilience.

Utopia invites the viewer to inhabit a vision of the future that is both alien and familiar, playful and radical, and to reflect on how environment shapes human experience over time.
