Abstract

Through my work, I highlight both peripheral and intrinsic aspects of graphic designers' quotidian lives to reveal new ways of thinking about design tools, media, and processes. As a creator who always seeks for novel perspectives, I keep observing and interpreting irony in aspects of the world. Using storytelling methods, I portray a certain object, machine or system in a way that deviates from its intended purpose. I animate static media to convey sequential stories. I use familiar tools of designers to discover their inconspicuous characteristics. I translate graphic elements that we usually experience through two dimensions into three dimensional objects. Connections between the graphic design apparatuses and my observations thereof become the inspiration for my designs. This process perpetuates a constant cycle of questions and further investigations into assumed forms and functions of objects to ultimately highlight the absurd expectations we hold for our world.
