Engaging with themes of impermanence, displacement, and cycles, I draw from personal history and observations in nature that reflect on our relationship with time.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBy engaging in material practices and craft making, I meditate on the complex nature of time and draw attention to the beauty of impermanence. My choice of using paper, a material that is often perceived as delicate and impermanent, is transformed into intricate, three-dimensional sculptures that take on inspiration from nature’s cycles. In this process, I am drawn to how everyday materials, often overlooked, can reveal unexpected meaning through transformation and time.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSeden holds a Bachelors in Industrial Design from the Ontario College of Art and Design University.
