Assignment 2
Connected/Disconnected

Space/Materiality
Natalia Zubko
For this project, I wanted to make something that expresses how I think about body contact. One thing that urban environment troubles me is that there is too much body contact between strangers, like on subway or crowded streets. I don’t feel comfortable about this kind of physical contact so I always try to “squeeze” my body in order not to accidentally touch someone else.
Therefore I decided to design an armor that could protect me while confining my body in a fixed space.
