An Exploration of Art, Science, and Breathing Technology for Fashion Design


Pulmonaut explores the intersection between technology and design through the science of breathing and the art of glassblowing in a sculptural fashion context. As astronauts explore the depths of space, pulmonauts explore the depths of their breath.

Hand-crafted, wearable glass instruments aim to visualize breathing techniques as a shaping technology and universal language; while co-creating with Linz-based glassblower, Günther Mausz, to amplify craftsmanship as an art of our future.
