Sofia Karnukaeva, a Barcelona-based artist and architect, observes and interprets the world around her through form and material, using an intuitive method of transformation. She explores how external conditions influence the emergence of new forms.

In the shapes crafted by Sofia, one can perceive her endeavor to translate the abstract into the tangible and the intuitive into the sensory. Her tactile vessel-sculptures evoke bodily and zoomorphic forms, bearing
a resemblance to nests, beehives, or caves.
