Drip II
In order to create repeating products in the metal casting process, normally we make moulds.
Drip II is an experiment on ‘No mould mould’. I dripped fruits, vegetables, balloons, plastic bottles into molten wax. The final pieces of work are one of a kind, with natural texture, traces of gravity, and what remains from the casting process.

Tithi Kutchamuch was born in Chiang-Rai in 1981. She received her Bachelor of Architecture/Industrial Design from King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, in Bangkok.
She would go onto study at the Royal College of Art, in London, where she was awarded an MA in Design Products, in 2005. She is a recipient of numerous awards including: ‘Winner of the Best newcomer’ from Craft Council UK; ‘Deutsche Award’ from Deutsche Bank UK; she was also selected as Designer of the Year in both Jewellery and Product categories from Royal Thai Government amongst a number of other accolades.
Her works are in the permanent collection of The Alice and Louis Koch Collection in the Swiss National Museum (Zurich), and International Collection of Contemporary Jewellery, Legnica (Poland).
Tithi’s unconventional conceptual approach has led her to design a variety of interesting pieces, which cross boundaries between art pieces, decorative objects, functional jewellery and architectural projects
