RL: Please tell us about your design?
KO: My focus as a designer is looking at sustainability which this laser cut piece is one of the outcomes in a response to the overexploitation of the oceans, particularly shark finning, which kills 300 million sharks every year.
RL: What do you like about laser cutting and the material/s you used?
KO: I really enjoyed laser cutting as I wasn’t expecting to have the background, I wanted to be as resourceful as possible to get the best outcome, so I used the plastic wrapper over the shark, which created a fitting contrast, which also meant I didn’t need to discard of any of the acrylic.
RL: What made you choose RazorLAB?

Additionally, they were very friendly and helpful, providing excellent customer service.
