Shifting Focus by João Justino

This interactive artifact represents my journey of personal exploration through wheel throwing. This piece highlights the shift in my creative process to create freely and learn this new skill. I used my body to closely interact with the material, immersing myself in an embodied practice. Through cultivating self-awareness and embracing self-acceptance, natural shapes began to emerge organically. By alternating focus between physical and mental aspects this project culminates in a holistic understanding of my personal creative process.

Shelf Version 1 by Lauriina Markkula

By switching from an end result focused process, to a more playful iterative process, I give myself the freedom to make rough prototypes, play with the material while doing it and see where the exploration leads me.

Snow’s recognition by Yutaro Komaki

Snow recognises the shape of the place where it piles up carefully and gradually. Snow accepts any shape. How can I recognise the shape of my thoughts and imagination like snow?
