Quotidian Bundle: Puzzle + Pillow by Studio Proba

"My work is expressive, colorful, sometimes bold and geometric, sometimes organic and playful. I want people to feel something when they interact with my work—and I want them to feel something overwhelmingly positive. I try to be inspired by the everyday, the things surrounding us that we often take for granted. I am fascinated with how many people go through a day without noticing the patterns and structures in nature, and the juxtaposition against so much that is "man made.” I try to marry both in my works. Patterns are often inspired by familiar textures (concrete, terrazzo flooring, pebbles) and materials, and my shapes can often be found in nature. This specific piece is meant to remind people not to take little, everyday things for granted." — Alex Proba
