This body of work consists of a series of compact sculptural and kinetic objects that reconfigure domestic tools and furniture into hybrid, misbehaving forms. Using reappropriated furniture, cutlery, and household devices combined with silicone, latex, lace, found objects, and small motors, the works appear to breathe, tremble, or gently caress—introducing subtle, unsettling gestures into familiar settings. Each piece is made through assemblage, modification, and soft fabrication, incorporating electronics, casting, and hand-finishing to produce intimate, body-scaled encounters. Anchored in the language of the home, the objects blur boundaries between utility and ornament, comfort and discomfort, care and control. Function is deliberately “queered,” so that tools no longer serve clear purposes but instead act as proxies for absent bodies and speculative kin.
