“Space junk” which from afar resembles tiny paint specks, are debris left over by humans satellites that are now trapped into the universe. The debris have different scales depending on the point of view.
The shapes were inspired by the forms of actual debris, the paint specks laser cut on each shape represent the perception of space junk in the universe. The sculpture plays with lights and shadows to disorient the viewer.
DEBRIS
These works focus on debris accumulated on a surface.
The wood was carved to create the dimensional effect of the paint. It challenges the traditional ways of painting
The carving is very delicate in order to almost be perceived as a thin layer of paint. When looking closer at the carved areas, the wood grain becomes visible and creates a beautiful natural dynamic.

These works are inspired by the duality between dark and light alluding to an eclipse. Saber’s beads is the broken arc of illumination surrounding the moon. The gold has been carved with a laser cutter to be damaged and broken. They are references to the relationship between nature and humanity.

FORCES OF NATURE
Forces of Nature is a series of permanent outdoor sculptural installations at The Village of Casa Familia, located at 10951 SW 84th St. in Miami. The project, commissioned through Miami-Dade County Art in Public Places, creates an inclusive, tactile experience, inviting visitors to interact with nature, encounter reflective surfaces, and explore the relationship between humans, their environment, and functional art.
A series of interactive panels composed of painted metal and mirror fragments is distributed throughout the site, merging the viewer with the surrounding landscape while layered fragments create partial and shifting views of others. Some panels are primarily reflective, interrupted by blue fragments, while others reverse that composition, using blue surfaces broken by moments of reflection. Together, the “positive” and “negative” variations create a dynamic interplay across the installation and serve as a visual metaphor for how we see ourselves in relation to one another and the world around us.
At the heart of Forces of Nature is a canopy social area inspired by Billet’s abstract paintings. The shaded structure creates a place for conversation, rest, or retreat, with benches cast in light blue fiberglass from etched wood surfaces based on Billet’s drawings. Supported by concrete legs formed from 3D-printed molds and integrated with living plants, the benches offer both functional seating and a tactile encounter with the work.
