Melissa Chow & Helena Slosar



Chow Slosar

Artist Melissa Kit Chow and designer Helena Slosar are obsessed with space. The two instantly bonded over this shared interest while at Harvard Graduate School of Design and eventually went on to form mk+H. Working at the intersection of installation art, architecture, and product design, mk+H have built their artistic practice around a desire to interrupt habitual patterns of movement and experience in order to reveal moments of unexpected beauty in everyday phenomena.

Their projects seek to re-engage the public with the built environment through alternative modes of seeing, hearing, and experiencing. By collaborating with professionals in a variety of fields, ranging from computer scientists to acoustical engineers, Melissa and Helena utilize technology as a way to promote interaction and participation. First and foremost, they specialize in crafting unique spatial experiences that enliven spaces and encourage new physical and social relationships to arise within the greater public sphere.
