“I consider to make my work as comprehensive as attainable, as if making an attempt to give an solution to all issues you may encounter,” he informed Dezeen. “I do not like work that only points out to a planet that looks like it is from the future, as if there is previous nor existing.”

“I like to use located or present furnishings,” Brajkovic mentioned. “It is a way for me to celebrate submit-planet war two present day art. It is a way to attempt to get close to an concept of the deconstruction of a chair.”
Sleipnir
Brajkovic informed Dezeen that the collection was influenced by the birth of his first child. “This gave me the thought to make pieces that move from a vanishing point and beyond,” he explained. “For me there is a resemblance of viewing a little one currently being born and a vanishing level.”
Sleipnir
The exhibition also consists of a series of aluminium tables known as Lathe, which are shaped on a pc-controlled turning machine to contain little ridges that circle the entirety of the surfaces. The pieces are then hardened and coloured in an anodising bath.
