Alnoor

Founder Alnoor Design

I create object of desire
An object must have a history that you seek to appropriate for yourself. It speaks to the unconscious. Frequently it encourages you to touch it and engage in an emotional dialogue with it. Of necessity, it creates an attachment. I like to emphasise this moment filled with promises and desires, just before physical contact with the object.
