Still figuring out if I should just drop my act of trying to be minimalist and embrace my hoarding.
Hello, I'm Karl, and I am the TinyKraftKabin, just a man with a laser and a desire for a slower, calmer life.
I mainly work with wood and titanium, although I tend to dabble in other materials.
My main goal is to have a calm, balanced life, and so far I have found it extremely hard in this fast-moving world. The life I had when growing up is long gone, but the nostalgia of it keeps me moving forward, or rather backwards, to that lifestyle.
I explore the calmer life through my work by embracing simplistic minimal shapes and natural colours from nature.
I get my inspiration from minimalism and pop art movements; some of it comes from my endless flânerie (an Estonian in England using a French word – how dare he -.-). I find minimalism calming and decluttering a way forward for a slower life.
Why?
I want to share my work with others to help them slow down, even if it's through a simple piece of jewellery or a household item, whatever takes your fancy.
