Time Capsule: Allegories of Shanghai
Photography and video work installation
June-July 2015
From the items found in our homes, to the tools we use at work, we surround ourselves with objects necessary for our existence in todays world.As part of a wider global project, I travelled to Shanghai, one of China's most diverse cities, in an attempt to explore an idea that we can make sense of someones life, by viewing the objects they touch throughout a day.

Below, you can find some of the older articles about my work in design, research,...
