SEARCHING...                                                       SEARCHING FOR SHAPES...
SEARCHING FOR IDEAS AND MEANINGS...

LOOKING FOR BALANCE AND HARMONY. COMPLEMENTARITY, INTERDEPENDENCE, SYMBIOSIS, RECIPROCITY. A SPACE OF SHAPES AND IDEAS, WHERE MEANINGS BLEND AND CONTRAST IS JUST ANOTHER FACE OF THE OPPOSITES' UNITY.
