Held & Reflected

In this series of mirror and vessels, the investigation into material, function and transformation is extended. Discarded denim, a fabric once shaped around the body, is reconfigured into objects that quietly inhabit domestic space.


Mirrors and vases, forms traditionally associated with utility, are here approached as sculptural entities, where use becomes secondary to presence.

Through processes of wrapping, layering, and compression, the material gathers into dense yet soft structures that both hold and reflect. The mirror does not simply return an image, but is framed by traces of wear and time, subtly interrupting the act of looking. The vessels, in turn, suggest containment without fully resolving into function, hovering between object and sculpture.


In these works, the boundary between inside and outside, surface and structure, becomes porous. What once served is neither restored nor erased, but carried forward: accumulating into new forms that balance familiarity with estrangement. The domestic is not abandoned, but reimagined: as a site where memory, material and form converge.
