Wordlab



A word is a feeling, energy. It has its own weight. We can feel touched by it. But is it possible to touch it back? To see its shape?

We try to catch a word in that very moment when it is rushing out of mouth, to find a way how to grasp physically what has been said, maybe in order to understand it more. Each word in the collection is semantically connected to a feeling / emotion.

The project is an exploration of the possibility of a word materialisation, stopping them at that very moment when they are rushing out of mouth. It was developed at S+M+L_XL jewelry and metal studio at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, Slovakia.
