Appreciation towards Numen for providing the following description:

Tuft是一个存在更久，更独立和进化的胶带构造。胶带做成基本形体，然后采用传统的簇绒地毯内饰有机表面。粗糙的外表之下是内部动人的柔软。因此这带来让人兴奋激动的超现实感。将构造安装在教堂四米高的高空，更是增强了冲击力。用户在外围谨慎的探知后，就会安心享受内部的柔软和良好的隔绝性。

TUFT is an evolution of the tape concept into a more permanent,self-standing, transferable structure. Adhesive tape is used to generate the primary form of the object. The organic surface of the carpet is later achieved through precise division of the shape in two- dimensional segments, enabling traditional tufting technology. The development and production were executed in a Croatian factory Regeneracija, a former regional industrial giant.

Rough, industrial surface of the back side of the carpet is deliberately exposed to serve as a counterpoint to the invitingly soft, carnal interior. The result is a surreal simultaneous feeling of anxiety and thrill whilst entering into the installation. The exhibition of the structure at the height of 4 meters in the middle of the former church in Pula, additionally enhances the tension and the sensational perception of the visitor. After the initial caution, the user starts perceiving the functional aspect of the installation, utilizing the softness and sound isolation of the installation and using it as an inward facing collective sofa.
