Context is the material

Working across mediums, cultures and spaces. Every project is built on the same principle: control the context, shift the perception.

Nothing has fixed meaning. Value, authority, and relevance are social constructs, all shaped by context. How something is framed determines how it is perceived. Thomas Hanscomb Studio exists to test that, over and over, at different scales.
