Euplectella Series. The process for this series began with the wondering about sponges that lives on the bottom of the sea. This sponge (euplectella Aspergillum) is a real . The animal is building, outside the range of natural light, an open structure of glass with an optimum strength with a minimum use of material. How to succeed in this creatures to produce very high quality glass without using heat?

The idea that deep underwater is always dark and out of reach of daylight life is like on the track brought out another universe Remy & Veenhuizen to develop light-emitting structures. The objects in this exhibition are studies on this subject.
