Ethos Disposable “Flavored Disposable Vapes”
SLA Resin Print, Custom Made E-liquid

Did some decorative, projection and performative work for the now closed Secrets club RIP 🙏 will never forget the monstrous amounts of the sorrel cocktail drank
Boramaniac Manifesto “Performance”
PETG 3D Print, Thermal Printing
2023
When you promise to write a manifesto but are too lazy so you decide to write it on the spot, which was coming out of the mouth of a sculpture of yourself laying down like a Greek god with abnormally fat breasts and stomach as usual 🙇♂️

An extremely implausible yet equally funky eyewear concept made using generative design, couldn’t be bothered to do a shoot so deal with my thirst traps 🤭
