Back to Origins

by Alissa Volchkova

Inspired by the Stone Age and the caveman objects, it’s a come back to the authenticity and nature. The aim is to reveal the beauty of that unique era, and take advantage of the nature that surrounds us through a personal interpretation of the prehistoric objects, like stones and glass that were used and cut in a particular way. The use of materials such as marble and glass is considered today as luxurious. The aim is to emphasize their beauty not only by showing their refined and shiny parts, but also their rough and natural sides. That contrast - rough and refined - will reveal the beautiful characteristics of these well-known but surprising materials. Through that project, Alissa is also taking advantage of our digitalised era, to remind us about the beauty of the nature, and how that beauty can be paradoxically emphasized by machines.
