“Fragments blooming into their next incarnation, each carrying the essence of their origins while branching into new purposes."

“(In)carnations” is a collection of classical stone fragments, once integral to architectural elements of skirtings, cornices, columns, basins, holy stoups, and fountains, are preserved, reimagined, and re-contextualized into sculptural and functional pieces turned into library consoles, table lamps, wall-mounted shelves, floor lamp and coffee-table. Through minimal intervention, they speak to both structure and nature while carrying the imprint of their original form.

The sustainable dimension of this collection reflects the cyclical nature of creation and matter, with each piece operating as both archaeological artifact and contemporary object. This "Revival of Lost Forms" represents neither waste nor restoration, but continuity and reinterpretation - a dialogue between what was and what is. It acknowledges that true sustainable design lies in the continuous evolution of meaning across time.

Stone, despite its inherent weight and solidity, can feel lightweight and organic through carved forms. This collection emphasizes the paradox of how delicate patterns, carved into hard material, create a sense of fluidity and grace that makes the stone appear to defy its own weight. The work celebrates both the material's natural origins and its transformation through human craft.
