003 | In Perfect Place 2025
Unique works 52 x 52 cm | Limited Editions 27 x 27 cm | Miniatures 7 x 7 cm
A visual language describing the friction of life.
These sculptures act as a compass, guiding you to retrace defining moments
and reclaim that emotion to find your perfect place.
What does it mean to truly belong? Whether you feel your plans are finally falling into place or you are searching for that rare moment where energy flows effortlessly, our first series, 003 | In Perfect Place, makes these universal feelings tangible. We have translated different stages of ‘belonging’: searching, arriving, thriving, and evolving, into a distinct visual language.
Every panel is a result of a meticulous manual process, from 3D-printing the cubes and base plates to sanding, priming, and spray-painting each cube to achieve the perfect palette.
Find Your Place: an Invitation to Reflect
This visual language is built from individual cubes arranged in a square formation, painted in bright, contrasting colours and mounted at varying heights. Each composition uses a rhythm of height and depth to map specific sensations: some structures are flat and stable, while others erupt with energy, with cubes reaching forward as if ready to burst. Each cube represents a facet of your life: family, children, work, health, hobbies, interests, finances. Through color, height, and proximity to other cubes, each facet tells its story. Together, they form you, as you are now, or as you were at a pivotal moment in the past.
Whether your life currently feels like a quiet, stable foundation or a vibrant explosion of energy, we invite you to use this series as a map for your own experiences. True belonging is rarely static; it is a cycle of searching, arriving, thriving, and evolving.
To begin your journey through the panels, we encourage you to step into each frame and ask yourself:

#1. The Precipice of Belonging 2025
52 x 52 x 10 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Resin, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish, Wood.
Unique Work.
#001. Prelude
27 x 27 x 8 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish.
Limited Edition of 8.
This is the foundation of it all.
Here, everything is… fine. Not perfect. But stable. Calm. Safe.
There are small disturbances, yes, but nothing heavy.
“How are you?” “I am okay.”
This is the place where we (hopefully) spend much of our time, but also where we long to return when things go less smoothly. After a setback, during a period of stress, we want nothing more than to come back to ‘normal’.
We can stay here for a long time. It’s a good place to be.
But if you stay long enough, you inevitably hear the call for more.
And you can either answer, or safely remain.
🧩 The form is clearly three-dimensional, but without dramatic heights.
No extremes. Everything leans gently toward balance.
🎨 The colours are soft, muted. White, light greys, a touch of blue sheen.
They flow together, they harmonise.
The silver reflects its environment and affirms connection:
when seen in reflection, the disturbances disappear.
It looks almost perfect.
And you… you feel ready. Curious.
Connected to what comes next, like a whisper of something greater.
But you may stay here. For as long as you like. No rush.
The Prelude Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
Do you find yourself in this stage now?
Is everything just okay, or are there outliers disrupting the balance?
What could you adjust to return here?
What would you need to resolve to move from here toward perfection?

Unique Work.
#002. Tension
27 x 27 x 6 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish.
Limited Edition of 8.
You come from a place of comfort.
There, life was stable, the disturbances were manageable, and staying required little energy.
It was a good place to be.
But something in you refused to settle for ‘stable’.
Whether you meticulously worked towards it,
aligning every aspect of your life one by one,
or whether it suddenly overcame you in a rush of serendipity…
the moment has arrived.
The click. Everything. Perfect.
This is the millisecond where every facet of your existence (family, ambition, health, passion…) snaps into a single, unified plane. It is no longer just ‘okay’. It is absolute.
But unlike the calm you left behind, this state demands everything you have. To hold all these balls in the air, to keep every block perfectly level, requires immense tension.
You have arrived at perfection. But the cost of perfection is pressure.
It vibrates. It hums. It cannot last.
🧩 The form is strict and unforgiving. Where there were once gentle undulations and comforting variations, there is now only a flat, high-tension surface. Every block is pressed into the absolute base level. No heights, no lows, no deviation. They are locked together in an almost inhuman order.
🎨 The colours strip away the nuance. Gone are the soft greys and the soothing blue sheen of the comfort zone. Here, there is only blinding white against deep black.
It reflects the light with a hard, sharp intensity.
There are no shadows to hide in.
It looks magnificent. A triumph.
And you… you feel powerful, but breathless.
Like a string pulled to its breaking point.
You know this alignment is fleeting.
The energy building up beneath this compressed surface is ready to explode.
Into creativity.
Or chaos.
The Tension Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
In what situation were you, the last time you experienced this?
Can you retrieve that specific emotion, that vibration of absolute control?
What adjustments would you need to make right now to align your world like that again?
And if you did… can you imagine the sheer electricity of feeling that perfect click once more?

#3. The Expanse of Belonging 2025
52 x 52 x 27 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Resin, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish, Wood.
Unique Work.
#003. Euphoria
27 x 27 x 14 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish.
Limited Edition of 8.
The silence of The Perfect Alignment has shattered.
But it has not broken into pieces. It has broken into motion.
That immense pressure you felt?
It has found its release.
“This is it. I can take on the world.”
This is The Expanse of Belonging. The moment the dam breaks and the river flows.
The static perfection of the white plane transforms into kinetic energy.
It is the feeling of completeness across every single facet of your life.
Work, family, friends, your inner self… suddenly, they don’t just fit. They sing.
You are no longer holding the balls in the air with effort; they are flying on their own.
Weightless.
You feel you can handle anything.
You get everything done, and you still have energy to spare.
It is an irresistible urge to move forward. To grow. To expand.
🧩 The form is pure abundance. The strict, flat grid has opened up. Nothing is fixed or repressed anymore. The cubes dance in height and position. It might look like chaos to an outsider, but you know better.
It is a symphony. It is a dynamic harmony where every element finds its own space to breathe.
🎨 The colours burst forth. The clinical white has given way to rich, vibrant life. There is no limit here. Everything radiates.
And in the middle, look closely. There is one central element, still nearly white, that acts as the conductor. It leads the dance, pulling every other facet of your life upward with it.
This is Euphoria.
And it is not a random stroke of luck. It is the reward for the work you did in the shadows.
Because you managed to align everything in the previous stage, because you endured that tension and fixed the foundation, you have earned this freedom.
The mental load is gone. You are no longer managing survival.
You are riding the wave of your own creation.
You are perfectly in sync with the rhythm of the world.
The Euphoria Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
When was the last time you felt this state of limitless energy?
Do you recognise this as the moment after a hurdle was taken?
Do you believe you can stay here continuously, keeping every single ball in the air forever?
And what one thing could you change today to invite that rush of colour back into your life?

#4. The Shift to a New Core 2025
52 x 52 x 33 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Resin, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish, Wood.
Unique Work.
#004. Elevation
27 x 27 x 20 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish.
Limited Edition of 8.
The storm of Euphoria was magnificent, but exhausting.
Unbridled energy radiates brilliance, but you cannot sustain it forever.
Gravity eventually demands its due.
“I know what matters now.”
There comes a moment when you realise you do not need to keep all the balls in the air.
You do not need to be everything to everyone.
Familiarity brings clarity. You know better who you are, what you want, and where you belong.
This is the moment of choice.
You gently lower the distractions to the background
and channel all that remaining power into a single, defining purpose.
This is not a retreat. It is an Elevation.
It is the shedding of outer layers to reveal a stronger, sharper identity.
🧩 The form is a study in priority. A hierarchy has emerged. The central cubes have risen to form a powerful plateau, your new core. They stand tallest, demanding the most attention. The surrounding elements have not disappeared; they have simply stepped back. They do not rest at the bottom, but hover at a supportive level, giving just enough energy to hold the structure together without draining the focus from the centre.
🎨 The colours are purposeful and unified. Gone are the blinding contrasts or chaotic explosions. A soothing palette of pastel blue, lavender purple, and mint green washes over the entire piece. It evokes clarity without losing strength. It suggests transformation without turbulence. Every cube, whether high in the core or low in the support, wears the same colours because they now share the same goal: to make this new vision succeed.
This is the start of a (r)evolution.
Old patterns have fallen away,
and in their place, something sharper has emerged.
It feels intense, yes, because you are building a new version of yourself.
But there is also relief.
You no longer have to carry the world,
just the parts that truly matter.
Over time,
this central core will expand. It will ripple outwards, pulling the rest of your life up to its level.
What feels like a peak today will eventually settle into your new baseline.
This ‘new core’ will become your ‘new normal’.
Your new ‘ça va’.
And here, the circle closes.
You realise now that this journey is not a straight line, but a continuous cycle.
A spiral of growth, rather than a circle of repetition.
You will return to the calm stability of The Precipice of Belonging,
but you will be standing on higher ground.
And from there,
you can rest as long as you like…
Until the urge to evolve stirs within you.
Once again.
The Elevation Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
Do you recognise this feeling of closing a chapter, not with sorrow, but with focus?
If you look at your life right now, which facets form your central core?
Does letting go of the ‘rest’ feel like a loss, or does it feel like liberation?
Can you see how the end of this phase is actually the beginning of the next loop?

#5. The Inward Spiral 2025
52 x 52 x 29 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Resin, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish, Wood.
Unique Work.
#005. Separation
27 x 27 x 14 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish.
Limited Edition of 8.
Not every burst of energy settles into a single, unified peak.
Sometimes, the pressure of keeping all the balls in the air becomes too much, but you cannot agree on which ones to drop. And so, the unity cracks.
This is the alternative to the deliberate choice of Elevation.
“We are drifting apart.”
It is rarely a sudden break.
It is a series of small shifts.
A silence where there used to be laughter.
A disagreement that solidifies into a wall.
Instead of rising together, the path splits. It can feel painful, like a loss of belonging.
But it is also a form of protection. When the noise becomes too loud, we retreat to those who speak our language.
We spiral inward.
🧩 The form is a story of division. The grid is torn. What was once a mirrored, cohesive whole has split into two distinct islands. The distance between them is physical and palpable. There are no bridges here.
Each group follows its own rhythm, builds its own height, and turns its back on the other.
🎨 The colours define the camps. On one side, cool, rational blues. On the other, fiery, emotional red-pinks. They do not mix. They do not even clash. They simply ignore each other. The blue retreats into its logic; the red retreats into its passion. They try to push the other out of the frame, creating two separate universes on one canvas.
You see this in families, in politics, in teams where “we” becomes “us versus them”.
But look past the conflict.
Within the blue group, there is agreement. Within the red group, there is harmony.
As time passes, the turbulence within these separate groups will settle.
The blue blocks will find a common level; the red blocks will align.
They will eventually flatten out.
And just like that, the cycle restarts.
You have created a new Prelude.
It is smaller, shared with fewer people, but it is stable.
It is your new ‘normal’.
A new place to rest and belong…
Until the need to look over the wall arises.
The Separation Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
Have you ever felt the relief of finally choosing a side?
Is there a relationship or situation in your life that needs this distance to find peace?
Does the separation feel like a failure, or like a necessary boundary for your own growth?
And looking at the ‘other’ side… can you respect their rhythm, even if you no longer share it?

#6. The Stillness Beyond 2025
52 x 52 x 23 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Resin, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish, Wood.
Unique Work.
#006. Unwind
27 x 27 x 16 cm
PolyLactic Acid, Acrylic, Spray Paint, Acrylic Varnish.
Limited Edition of 8.
Sometimes,
you don’t need to climb the mountain or build a new core.
Sometimes,
you just need to stop.
This is the pause button in the cycle.
It is the feeling of arriving at your sanctuary.
The car engine stops…
The silence rushes in…
And your shoulders finally drop.
“I can breathe here.”
This works captures that precious, fleeting window of time:
a weekend away, a few days by the sea, or a retreat into nature.
The noise of the daily grind fades into the background.
You haven’t solved all your problems, they are still there, but for these few days, they cannot touch you.
You are here to unwind. To disconnect in order to reconnect.
🧩 The composition is a landscape of rest. It is layered, organic, and slightly irregular. It does not demand the strict perfection of Tension, nor the high energy of the Euphoria. It is a gentle, undulating surface. A temporary harmony. But there is often one block, or a small group, that sits slightly higher or apart. That is the reality of the holiday. The one work email you checked; the one worry that travelled with you. It is present, but it does not dominate. It is simply a ripple in the calm.
🎨 The colours are drawn from the “Golden Hour”. Soft sand, dune grasses, the pale blue of a coastal sky, and the warm, hushed purple of a setting sun. These are not colours that shout. They are colours that whisper. They invite you to slow your pulse and deepen your breath.
This piece was created for those who know the value of an escape.
It belongs in your second home, acting as a mirror to the peace you find there.
Or perhaps even more so, it belongs in your busy daily life: a window on your wall that lets you travel back to that dune, that terrace, that moment of silence, even if just for a few seconds between meetings.
The Unwind Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
Are you longing for that break right now?
Can you feel the difference between the ‘forced’ silence of holding it in, and the ‘natural’ silence of letting go?
Do you have a place where the world stops spinning?
And wouldn’t it be beautiful to have a permanent reminder of that peace, right here, waiting for you?
Before you can align your life, and before you can reach for Euphoria,
you must understand the ground you stand on.
Who we are is never a solitary story.
This work breathes the realisation that your origin, your home, and your upbringing shape the possibilities of your cycle.
“I am, because we are.”
In layers of colour and texture, generations intertwine.
These are the paths others cleared for you through their choices, their sacrifices, and their love.
You build upon what they left behind.
But there is a turning point.
At some stage,
you stop being just the fruit of the tree,
and you become the trunk.
You become the foundation.
With your knowledge and care as fertile soil,
you allow others,
your children, your team, your community
to grow and become themselves.
🧩 The form is defined by a central spine. A trunk of shimmering copper rises up, physically pulling the surrounding environment along in its growth. It represents that subtle, upward force pushing from deep roots. It shows how a strong core does not just rise alone, but lifts everything around it.
🎨 The palette is an anchor. Deep dark browns plant the work firmly in the earth, while burgundy red adds a deep, beating warmth: the bloodline. Moss green and forest green suggest life, flow, and vitality. A soft sand tone brings rest and balances the heavy earth colours. And through it all runs that copper sheen, a noble glans that catches the light, symbolising the precious value of what is passed down.
This is the relay race of life.
You were carried by family, by the effort of others. And now, in your turn, you carry the future.
Heritage is that connection: deeply rooted in the past, but always reaching toward what is yet to come.
The Heritage Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
Do you feel the presence of those who came before you in your daily life?
Are you currently in the phase of being ‘carried’, or are you the one doing the carrying?
What values are you acting as the “copper trunk” for, lifting them up for the next generation?
And looking at your foundation… is it solid enough to build your next cycle on?
This is the most dangerous place in the cycle.
It is a trap. A psychological prison disguised as a sanctuary.
To the person inside, this feels like The Perfect Alignment.
They feel untouchable, in complete control.
“Are you okay?” “I have never been better.”
But they are not better. They are numb.
This works visualises the state of total denial.
The disconnection is so severe that reality can no longer penetrate.
Friends, family, colleagues.
They all knock on the door, trying to signal that something is wrong.
But you don’t hear them.
You don’t see them.
You view their concern as an intrusion, a disturbance to your perfect peace.
You are not open to feedback.
You have locked the door from the inside.
And…
Thrown.
Away.
The.
Key.
🧩 The form is a sliding scale of delusion. It is not chaotic; it is terrifyingly structured. The surface is a rigid, diagonal slope. It rises step by step, from the lowest corner to the highest peak. A massive, tilted plane. Any object placed here would slide off instantly. But you? You are standing on this slope, convinced you are on flat ground. Your internal compass is broken. You are leaning against a mountain of your own making, believing you are standing tall.
🎨 The colour is the ultimate void. We use Musou Black, a substance that absorbs 99% of light. It is the colour of silence. It swallows every photon, every nuance, every shadow. And that is the tragedy. Because it absorbs all light, it hides the slope. It absorbs the signals from the outside world before they can reach you. There is no reflection. No mirror to show you who you have become.
This is a place of suffocation.
The “perfection” you feel is actually the absence of life.
You are waiting for the breakthrough, for the Euphoria, but it will never come.
Because you are not alive in this moment; you are hiding.
And the longer you stay in this darkness, the harder it becomes to find the way back to the light.
The Facade Miniature is available online in our Inventory.
Do you know someone who insisted they were ‘fine’, while you helplessly watched them slowly slide away?
Can you recall a friend who built a wall so thick that no love or logic could break through?
Have you ever felt that terrifying comfort yourself?
And would you be brave enough to trust the hand reaching out to pull you back?
In Perfect Place: the series overview
Life is rarely a straight line.
It is a living, breathing cycle.
We begin in the safe harbour of the Prelude, where life is calm, stable, and effortless.
But the urge for something greater pulls us into the high-tension wire of The Perfect Alignment, demanding absolute focus.
That pressure creates the spark for the Expanse of Belonging, where we ride the wave of pure Euphoria.
Yet, gravity returns, asking us to choose: do we channel that energy into The Shift to a New Core?
Or do we face the drift of The Inward Spiral, accepting the necessity of Separation?
Along the way, we must remember to pause and Unwind in The Stillness Beyond, to catch our breath.
Underpinning every step lies The Terrain of Becoming, the Heritage that serves as our foundation.
All to ensure we do not freeze in the dark trap of The Order of Disguise, hiding behind a hollow Facade.
This collection captures that entire spectrum. It maps the heartbeat of belonging.
Every piece in In Perfect Place is more than an image.
It is an invitation to anchor your own memory.
Pause at the work where you can read that one memory, where everything aligned, where you felt goosebumps.
This piece can become an anchor in your daily life.
In your home, your office, or your company entrance hall.
A place where you can return again and again to that feeling,
where you draw energy and focus,
where you come home in your own memory.
