susannah
is a maltese architectural designer & photographer who graduated from the university of malta with a special interest in social architecture, spatial agency & inhabitation.
in her photography, she shoots a mix of 35mm film & digital.
etrenally inspired by the maltese islands & their geographical landscape, her work expresses the language of ancient rock, cystal waters, crusty sea salt tracing constellations on one’s skin & the warmth of the sun. the architectural compositions these elements naturally form & people’s interaction with this environment become moments of presence & wonder. she seeks to tell the story of the sense of home this little floating rock encapsulates within the wider themes of mediterranean-ness & culture.
a collector of rocks, seashells, books & records, her other interests
include beach-exploring, hiking, travelling & cooking (but more so eating).
this project was part of a digital design class focusing on digital software & modelling, specifically rhino modelling. the design and techniques used were inspired by the nature of the site itself. the site specific canopy related to the tree canopy present and was created by offsetting. The pods were designed to mimic the spiralling needles of the same aleppo pine trees.
