The work of Noah Arends is a rendez-vous of fine arts with fashion (photography) and design.
Sculptural works emerge from a process of abstraction in which form, texture and color of the source materials are given new context. This results in surprising autonomous works, playfully balancing between notions of the natural and the artificial, the two- and the three-dimensional, the quality of sight and touch.
