Bike Parts
Bike Parts is about extracting elements of design from the world, studying them, and appropriating them in alternative materials or scales in order to serve a new purpose. Here I have focused on bikes, looking at the features of modern bike design which prioritise performance, through the lens of aesthetics. My project explored my passion for cycling, and the relationship we as humans have with our bikes, through making.
