Shape Shifter was a university project about reverse engineering a system and transforming it into something different.

I chose Apple's skeuomorphic design system from iOS 6, and flipped its usage of physical textures in digital elements to the inverse of making the digital elements into physical objects, as accurately as I could.

I then placed these in various contexts to photograph them, playing with the uncanny feeling of these elements which we recognise every day digitally, but never in real life.
