Vertical Membranes

Vertical Membranes make the evolution of my work wall-mountable, combinable, and infinitely expandable. Designed as a collector’s series, the reliefs can be combined into a growing matrix. Individually, they are precise artifacts; in a group, they form an intriguing wall structure. At just 10x10 cm, they are a compact format and easy to transport.

001 – Hive Mind Relic

A human head appears partially opened, revealing a dense interior of cables, nodes, and branching structures. The figure stands upright, calm, almost ceremonial, as if the exposed system were no longer hidden but accepted.

002 – City Within

The human body appears as a shell. Inside, a dense structure unfolds — blocks, corridors, systems.

003 – Medus Ai

The mind no longer contained by the skull. Cognition extends outward, branching into systems beyond the body.

004 – Overwired

A downward-cast figure integrated into a rigid, architectural frame. From the crown of the head, thick, ribbed conduits erupt like a cybernetic crest, fusing with the surrounding mechanical substrate.

005 – Post Human Seedling

A profile view of a head where the cranial shell fractures, revealing an intricate, mechanical substrate within. Below, an overgrowth of root-like cables wraps tightly around the neck and shoulder, anchoring the body to the base.

006 – Signal Spiral

A relief entirely dominated by a vortex. Ribbed, industrial conduits and segmented, worm-like structures spiral inward toward a central vortex, completely replacing any biological anatomy.

007 – Synthetic Touch

A human hand extends downward, its palm split and peeled open like organic tissue. Within the rupture, a precise grid of micro-components and architectural blocks replaces the muscle and tendon.

008 – Interlinked

Two human profiles face one another in extreme proximity, their expressions muted and still. Thick, ribbed cables and wire-like tendrils bridge the gap between them, piercing the skin and directly connecting their facial structures and cranial cavities.
