'Symbiosis'

Symbiosis is a biological theory that guided my initial research towards a design that is inspired by the symbiotic relationship within lichen.

The Algae and Fungi in lichens have a mutualistic relationship, beneficial for both organisms whose survival does not depend upon one another. This is the dynamic system which inspired my work.

Symbiotic dynamism is, therefore, a key facet of my design. I have aimed to create a set of bowls that are versatile and can function as a group or as individuals.
