I conducted research into nonverbal communication and challenged myself to visually interpret and represent these types of interactions. By exploring how we 'speak' with our body and space—through fields such as haptics, proxemics, chronemics, and kinesics—I aimed to rephrase these forms of language into experimental objects. To refine my focus, I concentrated on kinesics, as it encompasses many aspects of the other fields. Exploring movement and its visual and technical aspects, I incorporated mobility into my designs in two ways. First, plexiglass panels functioning as handles are attached to the bags with a belt screw, allowing them to pivot. Second, by adapting pattern designs, the colorful stripes on the bags and printed plexiglass handles interact to create a moiré effect. This integration of movement and patterns enhances my visual identity, resulting an experimental approach in fashion accessories. consultant: Judit Bráda photos of the final objects: Péter Bakó
