An early material test for Plastic-19, made by melting disposable face masks with a construction heat gun. The masks softened quickly and started forming a rough plastic sample inside a small blue lid.

This is a process fragment from the material research for Plastic-19. After Covid, we tested whether disposable face masks could become a new plastic sample instead of staying only as waste material.

The masks were placed inside a small blue lid and heated with a construction heat gun. They melted very easily, shrinking and merging into one uneven mass, which became one of the first steps in understanding how this material could behave.

"A construction-stage photo from Twinkle coffee shop on Sumska Street in Kharkiv. The circular fisheye effect came from shooting through a door peephole, not from a camera lens."
"A Blender setup with the Ukrainian trident was prepared as a shared base for the UkrArt NFT project. Designers used the same 3D model, camera, and light to create their own artworks."
"A DJI drone survey was turned into a quick 3D map of a new project site. The top view keeps the site boundary, landscape texture, and surrounding built fragments as a graphic diagram."

"A finished parachute canopy with a custom graphic layout and my logo placed among the printed marks. This was a small personal project made for a friend, and the canopy is still in use."
A quick smartphone sketch from the moment when the main idea for Heyday finally appeared. The sunflower became one of the visual elements that later entered the interior in Chicago.
