HUNTER COLLECTION
ACT 1 — ORIENTATION
Applied anthropology expressed through wearable form.
Before intention becomes direction, the body learns to register time.
Act 1 gathers the first gestures of awareness — moments where instinct awakens but has not yet solidified into strategy. These forms exist prior to pursuit. They listen before they move.
Porcelain watch quadrants appear as witnesses of duration rather than instruments of precision. They introduce time as lived experience — marking that orientation is never instantaneous, but formed through patience, repetition, and presence.
This Act is not about choosing a path.
It is about realizing that the quest has already begun.
All pieces are unique applied arts objects, handmade by the artist in Florence, Italy.
