“Details of the suspension"
“A bubble world where the interior unfolds like a landscape in the making.”
Kapsul is composed of two glass bells assembled by a metal hoop, forming an envelope suspended in the air.
Inside, a landscape unfolds—an organism undergoing metamorphosis, a miniature world that oscillates between fragility and expansion.
This glass bubble acts as an ambiguous container: it protects as much as it encloses, recalling the dual nature of all living membranes.
The glass reveals as much as it conceals; light glides over the curves, suggesting an inner breath, a form that is slowly transforming.
Kapsul thus appears as a womb-world: a space of gestation, transition, tension between interior and exterior.
A suspended form, ready to open or close - a fragile threshold where life finds its balance.
