Synthetic growth (2026) emerges from a negotiation between industrial extrusion and artistic intervention. Melted plastic accumulates under gravity, forming a dense mass shaped by weight and material behaviour, then cut back and compressed to reveal its final form. Colour is layered in smooth gradients to reveal traces of the process and to articulate variation within the material.
