[kiwa]

Inspired by the aesthetic structures of traditional Korean roofs, " [kiwa] " is a replica of those traditions interpreted in modern, industrial context. " [kiwa] " ; meaning roof tiles in Korean, symbolises both home and the heritage that comes with it. Although the sculpture is composed of industrial elements, the method in which to reproduce the tiles was deeply authentic. Each tile was gently sculpted by hand, giving every tile its unique character and when all put together it imbues the viewer with a sense of softness rather than the harshness of concrete.
