Francisca Snel

I am interested in the development of our relationship with our direct surrounding. In how we connect and shape our direct environment with our behaviour.

Folded light

‘Folded Light’ is an artistic exploration by Francisca Snel that delves into the captivating interplay between form, light, and shadow. Each piece in the collection begins with folded paper, transforming simple materials into sculptural works that play with perception and invite the viewer to experience light in new ways.
