concept
With education roots and passion in architecture. Rayya’s creative process tends to proceed by building in a three-dimensional, structural way rather than designing. In this collection she looks at feminine parts of the woman's body like the neck and shoulders giving them center stage. They are interpreted from a skeletal point of view, making them look as if they were fish bones or a ribcage. Vertical sheets of laser cut copper or wood transform an organic sensual shape into a structured edgy mould. Disturbingly beautiful, with a masochistic pinch stirred in.
