Meet NOVA — a limited capsule collection of padel rackets inspired by The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Open Access collection.
Instead of keeping centuries of art locked behind glass, I wanted to bring these masterpieces directly into play. Padel is dynamic, fast, and high-impact. By pairing ancient craftsmanship with performance carbon fiber, each racket becomes a true material rebirth — not just a print on a frame.

Everything was conceived, iterated, and directed inside FLORA. The node-based canvas made it effortless to link raw archival references, dial in textures, and build cinematic promo renders & videos in one workspace.
A limited series built for the court today... that might just end up back behind the museum glass a century from now.

I'm impressed by your work! These padel rackets are insane, and the way you showed them are blowing my mind!
A self-portrait by an Unknown Artist felt a little ironic. He’s literally right there!
🎨 This is my entry for the FLORA Museum Challenge.
I chose Self Portrait, created by an unknown artist around 1800–1805 and currently on view in The American Wing at The Met.

I used it as a starting point to imagine what we can’t see: his studio and the moment he painted this very self-portrait.
🖼️ Unknown Artist, meet the world outside your frame.

this is really funny, I never thought that people that paint stuff could be using those same clothes when doing it😂
