Sculpture and Fashion Design - both liberal arts - have invariably influenced my designs. While I take inspiration from the silhouette of garments and human figures, my fascination with the visual arts leads me to create kinetic sculptures. This is not an act of rebellion or change; rather, the motive here is more to affirm and accept personal expression. It is a continuation of what has been, and it looks toward the future of what will be. A passion for creating new things led me to establish Amalgamated Composition in 2021. It consists of a series of kinetic sculpture prototypes created with waste and donated materials to change perceptions and ideas about them. Reducing our carbon footprint is of paramount importance in today’s world and that is precisely the reason I have resolved to upcycle discarded materials to create something fascinating.
