Blur

In the heart of Moradabad, a unique collaboration with Meena artisans brought Blur to life. Months of dedication led to development of a thicker coat of Meena enamel, giving new dimension to the steel mesh. The mesh, perfectly cut, dances with the imperfections of hand-applied enamel, creating a mesmerizing play of focus and illusion. Colors shift and change, appearing and vanishing like fleeting emotions. Blur is a story of perspective and of shaping impermanence into timelessness.

Three transparent acrylic panels, red, blue, and yellow, intersect and overlap to form a vibrant palette, displaying varied colors under different lighting conditions and perspectives. Minimally and cleverly, Color Roller utilizes the rotatability of shapes to create different structures and forms for each component. Users can freely flip and rearrange the pieces to personalize their space with dynamic color combinations.
