An abstract, swirling holiday ornament made from dark, reflective coffee packets, illuminated by small, warm lights, against a brown background.

A Christmas tree ornament made from coffee packet foil. The shape is elongated polyhedrons (flat templates that fold into an icicle or crystal). Colors of foil are black and silver. Concept — Yin Yang, but without its sympols. You choose how your year went, white or black. An analysis of your year and daily routine. A kind of mark on the calendar, a ritual. A symbolic representation of life's cycles; a year consists of the collaboration of these cycles and the amount of coffee consumed. Allegory Two colors—positive and negative. Our day, the entire year, and our entire life are made up of this, a reflection of life. Form: swirling strips of packaging, gathered into a spiral, that move with every breath of air. Effect: a dynamic play of light and shadow, like steam or a stream of energy reflecting the garlands. Metaphor: "the energy of coffee, transformed into the light of a holiday." Visual: like a haze or the northern lights, frozen in a metallic material. See more
