Around 8 months from start to finish on this project. Design through to fabrication and install.

Great to work with the full team @marshmallowlaserfeast and Creative team @robinmcnicholas @barnysteel @ecetankal
An eternal joy to work with production @mullyj @anya.tye and @roxieoliveira

Lots of incredible talent from @e.gaz.made and a big thanks to @almost_everything_london And @officialstuartmanning

YOU:MATTER is a series of installations exploring how the human body is inextricably linked to water, air, and sunlight — through the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat.
