Olga Flór explores our existing surroundings by abstracting their essence. She values the small happenings of our daily life, in how they create meaning and connect with our memory. Her drive to design lies in the potential of suggesting ways to experience and perceive our environment in different ways - enhancing the relationship we have with objects and things. Her work puts duration, boredom and contemplation as central in our materialistic society. She composes and builds intuitively with metal, textile, sound and any material to express herself at different scales.

Oasis
The ‘Oasis’ series reveals the singularity of daily life settings. Each sculpture is an abstracted fragment of this reality. The interaction of objects in a space, the way they stand on their own, the lighting, the shapes... every scene inspires new sensations or tells different stories. These situations suggest an escape, an atmosphere, an intrigue or a dialogue. Taken away from their context, they become small islands embodying moments of rest and contemplation. This project is represented by Postmodern Collection. (https://www.postmoderncollection.com/)
