Totems of the 21st Century

A ring and a USB stick, carved from wood gathered in Vienna, emerge as modern totems—objects that hold presence and memory. The USB carries photographs of the objects themselves, holding the imprint of their emergence, inviting reflection on how we relate to the things that accompany us today.

Object design and concept by ANN[DONE, with assistance by Holz und Stahl - Günter Garner, in collaboration with jewelry designer Sophie Redetzky.
