RISE
by HIDEKI YOSHIMOTO
Rise transforms the fleeting beauty of bubbles into hand-blown glass, capturing the moment air meets liquid. Each suspended bubble arrests this ephemeral phenomenon, creating a delicate sculptural form that plays with light and perception. The arrangement of the glass bubbles evokes natural rhythms and movement, with reflections and refractions animating the surrounding space. By freezing these transient moments, the work emphasizes the poetry of impermanence, exploring how delicate forms can inhabit space, command attention, and suggest life within stillness.

HIDEKI YOSHIMOTO
Hideki Yoshimoto in 2015 founded Tangent, a London-based design and invention brand. The brand explores and proposes unique ideas which bring the latest technology to people’s lives to improve and help them. Interweaving technology with design at the most sophisticated level, Tangent promises a wholly novel yet somehow familiar experience. A tangent line does not dissect a curve but touches it at a given point. The brand's idea of 'new, familiar, luxurious' is undoubtedly represented in their products, which respect such tenderness and subtlety, as well as the strength of the point of contact.
